Effects of hydrogen bonds on solid state TATB, RDX, and DATB under high pressures

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/23/4/046501

Abstract To probe the behavior of hydrogen bonds in solid energetic materials, we conduct ReaxFF and SCC-DFTB molecular dynamics simulations of crystalline TATB, RDX, and DATB. By comparing the intra-and inter-molecular hydrogen bonding rates, we find that the crystal structures are stabilized by inter-molecular hydrogen bond networks. Under high-pressure, the inter-and intra-molecular hydrogen bonds in solid TATB and DATB are nearly equivalent. The hydrogen bonds in solid TATB and DATB are much shorter than in solid RDX, which suggests strong hydrogen bond interactions existing in these energetic materials. Stretching of the C-H bond is observed in solid RDX, which may lead to further decomposition and even detonation.

Keywords: hydrogen bond TATB RDX DATB ReaxFF energetic materials
