Summary of Practice4.1 This practice describes

27、 the calculation of nine figures-of-merit used to estimate the relative thermal hazard potentialof thermally unstable materials. These figures-of-merit includetime-to-thermal-runaway (tc), time-to-maximum-rate (TMR),critical half thickness (a), critical temperature (Tc), adiabaticdecomposition tempe

28、rature rise (Td), explosion potential (EP),shock sensitivity (SS), instantaneous power density (IPD), andinstability rating (IR). These calculations are based upon thedetermined or assumed values for activation energy (E),pre-exponential factor (Z), specific heat capacity (Cp), thermalconductivity (

29、l), heat of reaction (H), heat flow rate (q) anddensity or concentration (r). The activation energy and pre-exponential factor may be calculated using Test Methods E698,E2041,orE2070. The specific heat capacity may be obtainedfrom Test Method E1269. Thermal conductivity may beobtained from Test Meth

30、ods C177, C518,orE1952. Heat ofreaction may be obtained from Test Method E793. Heat flowrate may be obtained from Test Method E2070, 13.5, where itis called dH/dt. Values for concentration or density may beestimated from known values of model materials or throughactual measurement. In addition, cert

31、ain assumptions, such asinitial temperature and container geometries, must be supplied.5. Significance and Use5.1 This practice provides nine figures-of-merit which maybe used to estimate the relative thermal hazard potential ofthermally unstable materials. Since numerous assumptionsmust be made in

32、order to obtain these figures-of-merit, caremust be exercised to avoid too rigorous interpretation (or evenmisapplication) of the results.5.2 This practice may be used for comparative purposes,specification acceptance, and research. It should not be used topredict actual performance.6. Interferences

33、6.1 Since the calculations described in this practice arebased upon assumptions and physical measurements whichmay not always be precise, care must be used in the interpre-tation of the results. These results should be taken as relativefigures-of-merit and not as absolute values.6.2 The values for t

34、ime-to-thermal-runaway, critical halfthickness, and critical temperature are exponentially dependent3Available from National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), 1 BatterymarchPark, Quincy, MA 02169-7471, http:/www.nfpa.org.E1231 102upon the value of activation energy. This means that smallimprecisio

35、ns in activation energy may produce large impreci-sions in the calculated figures-of-merit. Therefore, activationenergy of the highest precision available should be used (1).46.3 Many energetic materials show complex decomposi-tions with important induction processes. Many materials areused or shipp

36、ed as an inhibited or stabilized composition,ensuring an induction process. In such cases, time-to-thermal-runaway will be determined largely by the induction processwhile critical temperature will be determined by the maximum-rate process. These two processes typically have very differentkinetic pa

37、rameters and follow different rate-law expressions.6.4 It is believed that critical temperature, using the samesize and shape container, provides the best estimate of relativethermal hazard potential for different materials (see Section10).6.5 Extrapolation of TMR to temperatures below thoseactually

38、 measured shall be done only with caution due to thepotential changes in kinetics (activation energy), the potentialfor autocatalysis, and the propagation of errors.7.
