## Abstract The gasβphase thermal decomposition rate of peroxyβ__n__βbutyryl nitrate (__n__βC~3~H~7~C(O)OONO~2~, PnBN) has been measured at ambient temperature (296 K) and 1 atm of air relative to that of peroxyacetyl nitrate (CH~3~C(O)OONO~2~, PAN) using mixtures of PAN (14β19 ppb), PnBN (22β46 pp
The condensed-phase thermal decomposition of aliphatic nitrate ester explosives is generally autocatalytic. The object of this article is to show that the agent of the autocatalysis is not the product NO2, as is generally believed, but to suggest that it may be the product formaldehyde. Aliphatic n
