Ultrasonically Assisted Preparation of Nano-HMX

Size reduction of High Energy Materials such as 1, 3, 5, 7-tetranitro- 1, 3, 5, 7-tetraaza cyclooctane (HMX), has considerable influence on improving their explosive characteristics. In this study, by using ultrasonically reprecipitation method instead of unsafe conventional ones, Nano-size HMX particles were produced with water as a safe and accessible antisolvent. SEM photographs revealed that much uniform and low agglomerated spherical morphology can be obtained when the low concentration of HMX- aceton solution with low temperature of antisolvent is utilized. These results are gained by using of SEM and TEM photographs and Digimizer - Winks software.
