Hazard of runaway of nitration processes in nitrocompounds production was investigated. Temperature rise in DNT nitration mixes under near adiabatic conditions was measured, and derivative dT/dζ was computed. Heat evolution rate caused by nitration (primary reaction) and oxidation (secondary reaction) were examined by means of elaborated mathematical model. Limiting values of T and dT/dζ for safe process were determined. The second part of investigation concerns detonability of solutions of nitrocompound in sulfuric acid. The detonation failure diameter df and detonation velocity D of solutions of trinitrotoluene, dinitrotoluene, and trinitrobenzene in sulfuric acid and oleum have been measured in the wide range of concentrations at T = 90C. It was shown that the detonability of the nitrocompounds depends signifcantly on the sulfuric acid content. The minimum value of df for the mixture TNT/oleum is about 2 mm, i.e., 30 times less, than that for melted TNT, and practically equals to df of nitroglycerine.
