Simultaneous Polarographic Determination of Pentaerythritol Tetranitrate and Cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine

Electrochemical Treatment of 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene and Related Compounds

“…Nitrobenzene undergoes a four-electron reduction to phenylhydroxylamine in aqueous solution at pH > 4 and a six-electron reduction to aniline at lower pH. Reduction takes place in several steps involving sequential electrochemical and chemical reactions ( − ). An important consideration in the present context is that reduction occurs at low negative potentials, at which parasitic electrolysis of water is minimized.…”

Analytical chemistry

“…and P.E.T.N. 614 The limits of applicability and sensitivity of the square-wave method have been discussed. 615 It has been adapted to the determination of copper and lead in indium arsenide down to 0.1 p.p.m.…”

Organic Polarography

“…Other polarographic work has dealt with the inorganic esters of alcohols and glycols. The method has been used for the simultaneous determination of pentaerythrityl tetranitrate and cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine using pyridine as a solvent (262), and for the determination of nitroglycerine in propellants (819). The use of a cathode-ray polarograph in the latter work gave three waves for nitroglycerine.…”
