It is found that there is a parallel relationship between experimental impact sensitivity and bond order of the weakest C-NO 2 bond in a molecule in each series. Previously, based on semiempirical MO calculations, "the principle of the smallest bond order (PSBO) " has been proposed by us to identify the relative magnitudes of impact sensitivity of a series of explosive compounds with similar molecular structures.

Structure information was analyzed from the MD simulations, while properties of nanoparticles of Cu453, such as melting point, freezing temperature, heat capacity and mo- lar volumes, have been estimated. The face center cubic (FCC) phase and icosahedron (Ih) phase were observed during the quenching process, and nucleation rates of crystallization to FCC crystal of Cu453 at temperatures of 650, 700, 750, and 800 K were analyzed. Both classical nucleation theory (CNT) and diffuse interface theory (DIT) were used to interpret our observed nucleation rates. The free energy and diffuse interface thickness between the liquid and the FCC crystal phases were estimated by the CNT and DIT respectively, and the results show that the DIT does not work properly to the system.展开更多
