Insights into the 5,5′-bis(1H-tetrazolyl)amine monohydrate (BTA·H2O) pyrolysis mechanism: integrated experimental and kinetic model analysis

The gas products for the thermal decomposition process of BTA·H 2 O were analyzed using TG-DSC-FTIR. The removal of crystal water in the BTA·H 2 O molecule and the thermal decomposition mechanism of BTA also was investigated using a series of analyses.
