Abstract
A high pressure liquid chromatography method has been developed for rapid and quantitative chemical analysis of the following thermally stable explosive materials: DATB, DINA, DIPAM, DNT, DODECA, HNAB, HNBiB, HMX, HNBP, HNS, NONA, ONT, PA, PETN, PYX, RDX, TATB, TETRYL, TNA, TNB, TNN, TNS, TNT, and TPT (see glossary). Additional characterization data was obtained using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and thin layer chromatography. Melting point data is also reported.
