Purdue University laboratories may use this document as a starting point for creating their work area specific CHP. Minimally this cover page is to be edited for work area specificity (non-West Lafayette laboratories are to place their own emergency, fire, and police telephone numbers in the space above) AND appendix K must be completed.

The Purdue University Chemical Hygiene Plan and Hazardous Materials Safety Manual serves as the written Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP) for laboratories using chemicals at Purdue University. The CHP is a regular, continuing effort, not a standby or short term activity.

Its low sensibility to São José dos Campos – Brazil shock makes it suitable for military and civil applications. TATB application [email protected] is done either alone or in combination with another high energetic material. This study aimed at reporting the review about many processes to produce *author for correspondence TATB and the problems associated with them, as well as suggest techniques like Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), which can be useful in the characterization of this energetic compound. Keywords: TATB, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Plastic-bonded explosive. LIST OF SYMBOLS impact hazards is important. Other potential applications include the use of TATB as the booster or main charge TATB 2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-trinitrobenzene explosives for down-hole oil perforation at elevated HE high explosive temperature surroundings (Lee, 1996). PBX plastic-bonded explosive HMX octogen TATB is a high explosive (HE) that can be combined with plastic binder to produce a plastic-bonded explosive RDX hexogen (PBX) composition, which is heat-resistant and highly TCB 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene insensitive.
