Title: Thermal Decomposition Kinetics of RDX with Distributed Activation Energy Model
Abstract: The thermal decomposition kinetics of RDX at different rates was studied by thermogravimetric analyzer(TG) and the activation energy of RDX was calculated by distributed activation energy model. It is shown that the thermal decomposition processes of RDX were divided into three stages according to the TG curves, they are molten stage, thermal decomposition stage and eng stage. The activation energies of RDX are all between 124.34 and 181.48KJ•mol-1 in the thermal decomposition stage of non-monotonously increasing. The activation energy of RDX is 139.98 KJ•mol-1 in the molten stage, and the thermal decomposition stage is167.24KJ•mol-1.
