HEXAHYDRO-1,3,5-TRINITRO-1,3,5-TRIAZINE Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Chemical Properties
Hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-S-triazine is a white crystalline compound.
Uses
Cyclonite is a high explosive and principal constituent of plastic bombs. It is preparedby treating hexamethylenetetramine with nitric acid,ammoniumnitrate,andaceticanhydride: It is also used as a rat poison.
Definition
ChEBI: An N-nitro compound that is 1,3,5-triazinane in which all three of the hydrogens attached to the nitrogens have been replaced by nitro groups. It is widely used in both industrial and military explosives.
General Description
Cyclotrimethylene trinitramine is an explosive. The explosion can be initiated by a sudden shock, high temperature or a combination of the two. The primary hazard is from blast effect and not from flying projectiles and fragments. Under prolonged exposure to heat or fire they can explode.
Air & Water Reactions
Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
CYCLOTRIMETHYLENE TRINITRAMINE is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents, combustible materials and heat. Detonates on contact with mercury fulminate . Danger of explosion when dry. The self heating and explosive decomposition of the explosive and aqueous alkali (calcium hydroxide) has been studied, [Chem Abs., 1988, 109, 112968].
Health Hazard
Cyclonite is a highly toxic substance. Repeated exposure can cause nausea, vomiting, and convulsions.
LD50 value, oral (rats): 100 mg/kg.
Fire Hazard
MAY EXPLODE AND THROW FRAGMENTS 1600 meters (1 MILE) OR MORE IF FIRE REACHES CARGO.
Safety Profile
Poison by ingestion, intraperitoneal, and intravenous routes. An experimental teratogen. Other experimental reproductive effects. A corrosive irritant to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. Cases of epileptifonn convulsions have been reported from exposure. It is one of the most powerful high explosives in use today. Has more shattering power than TNT and is often mixed with TNT as a bursting charge for aerial bombs, mines, and torpedoes. It is easily initiated by mercury fulrmnate, which may be used as a booster. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx. See also MINES, NITRATES, and EXPLOSIVES, HIGH.
Potential Exposure
A potential danger to those involved in the manufacture of this material and its handling in munitions and solid-propellant manufacture. It is also used as a rat poison; a powerful military explosive; a base charge for detonators; and in plastic explosives.

UN0072 Cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine, wetted or Cyclonite, wetted or Hexogen, wetted or RDX, wetted with not ,15% water by mass, Hazard Class: 1D; Labels: 1D-Explosive (with a mass explosion hazard); D-Substances or articles which may mass detonate (with blast and/or fragment hazard) when exposed to fire.
Purification Methods
RDX crystallises from acetone. [Bachmann & Sheehan J Am Chem Soc 71 1842 1949, Beilstein 26 II 5, 26 III/IV 22.] EXPLOSIVE.
Incompatibilities
Heat, physical damage, shock, and deto- nators. Detonates on contact with mercury fulminate. Keep away from other explosives, combustibles, oxidizers (such as chlorates, nitrates, perchlorates, permanganates, perox- ides; bromine, chlorine, and fluorine); reducing agents; and aqueous alkaline solutions.
Waste Disposal
Pour over soda ash, neutralize and flush to sewer with water. Also HMX may be recov- ered from solid propellant waste.
