Abstract:
On the basis of data obtained by the method of “labelled” atoms it is assumed that in strong shock and detonation waves the initial decomposition stages of a condensed substance containing carbon and hydrogen occur primarily with the release of carbon in the diamond phase and methane. Then there is oxidation of methane hydrogen and the release of carbon in a nondiamond phase. The distribution of an isotope label for the condensed products of TH and TO in known experiments is explained on the basis of a hypothesis of complete mixing of the components of fine-grained explosive in the chemical reaction zone.
