Estimation of the critical rate of temperature rise for thermal explosion of autocatalytic decomposing reaction of nitrocellulose using non-isothermal DSC
A method of estimating the critical rate of temperature rise for thermal explosion of empiric-order autocatalytic decomposition reaction system using non-isothermal DSC is presented. Information is obtained on the increasing rate of temperature in nitrocellulose containing 12.97% of nitrogen when the first-order autocatalytic decomposition converts into thermal explosion.
