| Abstract: | Hermetic thermal behavior of 3,4‐diaminofurazan (DAF) was studied by DSC method with special high‐pressure hermetic crucibles. The complete exothermic decomposition process of DAF can be provided. The extrapolated onset temperature, peak temperature, and enthalpy of decomposition at a heating rate of 10 K min−1 are 238.7 °C, 253.0 °C, and −1986 J g−1, respectively. Self‐accelerating decomposition temperature and critical temperature of thermal explosion of DAF are 232.3 and 253.1 °C, respectively. Specific heat capacity of DAF was determined with a micro DSC method and the molar heat capacity is 140.78 J mol−1 K−1 at 298.15 K. Adiabatic time‐to‐explosion of DAF is about 90 s. The thermal stability of DAF is good. |
