Abstract Nitramine explosives can combine relative insensitivity to initiation and great energy content. In this work, based on a previous approach developed for nitroaromatic explosives, we propose four mathematical models to correlate impact sensitivity, given by the h50 value, to molecular charge properties. Fourte…
