Polymorphism is universal in energetic materials (EMs), and polymorphic transition may lead to variations of structure performance. This work exemplifies such by revealing the polymorph-dependent mechanism initial thermal decomposition a typical EM, 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocane (HMX), using density functional tight-binding molecular dynamics simulations. dependence reflected differences starting steps their weights evolutions potential energy, reactants, some important intermediates products. Our simulations show that δ-HMX, thermally transitioned from α- or β-HMX, possesses lowest thermostability; C–N cleavage NO2 partition initiate all three polymorphs, increase reduce with increasing temperature; intermediate-initiated HMX molecules occurs only β-formed polymorph. The originated conformers stacking mode different which further result internal intermolecular contact, reaction. presents insight into importance thinking highly transitioned, instead most stable under common conditions only.

Crystal structure prediction (CSP) is performed for the energetic materials (EMs) LLM-105 and α-RDX, as well α β conformational polymorphs of 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetraazacyclooctane (HMX), using genetic algorithm (GA) code, GAtor, its associated random generator, Genarris. Genarris GAtor successfully generate experimental structures all targets. GAtor's symmetric crossover scheme, where space group symmetries parent are treated genes inherited by offspring, found to be particularly effective. However, conducting several GA runs with different settings still important achieving diverse samplings potential energy surface. For ranked most stable, dispersion-inclusive density functional theory (DFT) methods used here. HMX, form was persistently more stable than form, in contrast observations, even when correcting vibrational contributions thermal expansion. This may attributed insufficient accuracy DFT or kinetic effects not considered In general, ranking some putative sensitive choice dispersion method. LLM-105, generates a layered packing motif, which desirable thanks correlation low sensitivity. Our results demonstrate that CSP useful tool studying ubiquitous polymorphism EMs shows promise becoming an integral part EM development pipeline.

Predicting the crystal structure of an energetic compound is important aspect engineering because accurate prediction (CSP) presents a base for accurately predicting almost all properties and performances. Therein, sufficiently intermolecular force field required. In this work, tailor-made OPLS-AA (TM FF) 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20) molecule refitted based on quantum chemical calculations with dispersion-corrected density functional M06-2X. Based FF, three experimentally observed polymorphs CL-20, ε-, β- γ-formed are predicted as ranked 2, 1, 1 in energy landscapes, respectively. Meanwhile, geometric packing similarity check exhibits small deviation from experimental. Moreover, many thermodynamically feasible structures densities >2.0 g/cm3, even high 2.099 ascertained providing useful complement to experimental screening possible polymorphs. All these validate FF. This work expected pave wave reveal mechanisms polymorphic morphologic control transition CL-20.
