Thermochemical and Energy Characteristics of 1,4-Diethynylbenzene

Resumo

The standard enthalpy of formation of 1,4-diethynylbenzene experimentally to be 500.6 ± 6.7 kJ/mol. Calculations show that 1,4-diethynylbenzene has a relatively high adiabatic combustion temperature (about 1970 K at a pressure of 5 atm) and very high heat of combustion in oxygen (42 MJ/kg); therefore, 1,4-diethynylbenzene can be used as the basis to develop an effective dispersing agent of solid fuel that provides an adiabatic combustion temperature of up to 2500 K at a heat of combustion far exceeding the values provided by HMX and the other azides of N-heterocycles previously proposed for this purpose.
