Abstract

New bimolecular crystals of 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20) with 2,4-dinitro-2,4-diazapentane (DNP) and 2,4-dinitro-2,4-diazaheptane (DNG) were obtained in a ratio of 2 : 1 and 1 : 1, respectively. Their X-ray diffraction analyses were carried out. The thermal stability, detonation characteristics, and sensitivity to friction of bimolecular crystal of CL-20 with DNP (CLD) were studied. The detonation characteristics of bimolecular crystal CLD are comparable with the properties of the known bimolecular crystal CL-20—HMX (2 : 1).
