Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Vol. 223, No. 1153 (Apr. 22, 1954), pp. 267-282 (16 pages) The decomposition of barium and sodium azide at ...

The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of silver azide have been studied and the results found to fit a rate equation d(N2)/dt = k(AgN3)2/3. The energy of activation of the decomposition has been ...

PREVIOUS work on the decomposition of alpha-lead azide have been performed at temperatures close to its ignition temperature 1,2. The assumption has been made that the products of such decompositions ...

HYDROGEN azide is an extremely unstable and endothermic compound, and even in the absence of oxygen it may detonate violently. Nitrogen, hydrogen and ammonia are its decomposition products, and ...

In Judith A. Jance’s mystery novel Partner in Crime (2002), the murder weapon is sodium azide, a chemical used in auto air bags. She got her story idea from a magazine article about how poisonous ...

TRW Automotive will cease production this month of an explosive chemical that caused dozens of fiery explosions at its east Mesa air bag plant and sparked community protests. The company said it will ...
