Summary
The freely expanding gases from the detonation of pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) pellet were analyzed as rapidly as the molecules arrived at the mass spectrometer detector. It was found that all of the products arriving at the detector earliest, irrespective of mass, had the same velocity, 11 km s/sup -1/ and peaked at 5 km s/sup -1/. The width of the time distributions varied from one species to another. Mass and velocity spectra of the important products were obtained and the most intense signals were found to be H/sub 2/O, CO, and CO/sub 2/, but H/sub 2/O was by far the largest. Smaller signals arising from O, HCN, HCO, and NO/sub 2/ were also found. Comparisons of the spectrum with other experiments are discussed. 8 refs. 5 figs.
