Reactive Crystallization and Recrystallization for Energetic Material

In this presentation, Matthew Jorgensen of Nalas Engineering reviews the development of a highly-insoluable energetic material. The original synthesis involved a less than ideal, four-step process with 3 energetic steps including a slurry-to-slurry oxidation. Process Analytical Technology is employed to understand and improve the process to meet desired stability, morphology and purity specifications by:

Identifying reactive crystallization
Identifying mass transfer limitations on slurry to slurry reaction
Overcoming the inclusion of starting material
Getting the correct morphology with high purity through recrystallization design

This webinar presents practical examples and case studies in reactive crystallization and recrystallization in industry.
