backup products, that is, the method does not effectively control the RDX crystal quality
(appearance and internal defects); however, the preparation of RDX products with better
crystalline particles with high apparent density, shock sensitivity reduced by 25%.

[0005] The present invention uses a crystalline RDX control agents on crystallization process
is controlled so that the resulting crystalline RDX crystals with controlled particle size and
distribution of the crystals have a spherical shape more regular, has a higher bulk density and
processing performance, At the same time fewer internal defects RDX crystal, which has a
lower sensitivity.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0006] The present invention relates to a method for preparing spherical RDX technology
today, specifically including the following steps:

[0007] (I) will be added to the solvent and crystallization of RDX kettle, the solvent and the
ratio of RDX 100rnl: 200~300g, heated to 80-90 C so that RDX was completely dissolved,
then added to the weight of the initial amount of RDX 0.1 0.6% methylene ammonium nitrate
crystallization control agent, nitroethane or glycerol;

[0008] (2) at a rate of 3-5 C / minute cooling to 70~80 C with or without added weight of
RDX initial amount of 5% of the seed and keep stirring speed 200~450r / min, insulation
10_20min;

[0009] (3) at a rate of 1-5 C / min cooling to room temperature (20-25 C), stirring rate
200~450r / min, filtered, washed, and dried to obtain the product RDX.

[0010] The present invention RDX used in factory production in line with the use of standard
products, after treated, RDX shape becomes more regular, compared with and without crystal
control agents crystal, with less angular, with spherodized shape, with the same level of RDX
Particle Size and Distribution of the test, the measured bulk density of RDX front 15-45%
increase compared with the untreated, the viscosity of the liquid paraffin sphere of RDX mixed
system of relatively unprocessed RDX mixed with paraffin system The viscosity decreased
20-50%, sensitivity (H5. value) decreased 20-50%. RDX spherical crystal particles
characterized before and after treatment with an optical microscope morphology of its
appearance. RDX crystal particles before treatment as shown in the drawings, the crystal
particles are not very rule 1, showing massive, there are more angular. RDX crystals after
treatment almost no spherical angular shape also appears to rule, rendered spherical. RDX
treatment after having a spherical shape rules.

[0011] The present invention uses a small amount of crystal modifier to change the RDX
crystallization process, inhibiting the crystallization process RDX crystals during crystallization
defects (voids, dislocations, intergranular sandwich, etc.) reduced, thereby improving the
quality crystal, reducing the RDX mechanical sensitivity. However, measured by high
performance liquid around recrystallized RDX chemical purity is not reduced, the
crystallization control agent did not affect the chemical purity of RDX. Crystalline control
agents suitable crystallization process (solvent and RDX feed ratio, the cooling rate, stirring
speed, etc.) for RDX recrystallized RDX crystal shape can change not only to improve its
workability, bulk properties, but also improve its crystal quality reducing crystal defects,
reduce sensitivity.
