CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
| Physical Description | Dipicrylamine appears as a yellow solid. Decomposes violently at high temperatures. Insoluble in water and alcohol. Used as a booster explosive. May explode under prolonged exposure to heat or fire. Primary hazard is the blast effect of an instantaneous explosion and not flying projectiles and fragments. |
|---|---|
| Color/Form | Pale yellow prisms from acetic acid |
| Melting Point | 244 °C (decomposes) |
| Solubility | Soluble in alkalies, glacial acetic acid; insoluble in acetone, alcohol, ether |
