Aging of Pentaerythritol Tetranitrate (PETN)
Pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) is a relatively sensitive explosive used in many electroexplosive devices as well as in medicine. Of primary interest to LLNL is its use in items such as exploding bridgewire (EBW) detonators and exploding bridge foil initiators (EFI).

Anisotropic shock sensitivity for β-octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine energetic material under compressive-shear loading from ReaxFF-ℓg reactive dynamics simulations [PDF]
We report here the predictions on anisotropy of shock sensitivity and of chemical process initiation in single crystal β-octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine (β-HMX) using compressive shear reactive dynamics (CS-RD) model with ReaxFF-ℓg ...

Nonlinear Electromagnetic Interactions in Energetic Materials
We study the scattering of electromagnetic waves in anisotropic energetic materials. Nonlinear light-matter interactions in molecular crystals result in frequency-conversion and polarization changes.

Ti/PETN (titanium/pentaerythritol tetranitrate) accident investigation
During a routine mixing operation, a 1:1 mixture of titanium and pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) powders accidentally ignited. This prompted an investigation into the cause of the accident. Friction, impact, thermal, and electrostatic stimuli, as well as incompatibility between the powders, were evaluated for their potential to serve as the ...
