Abstract The thermal behaviour of nitroguanidine was studied using differential scanning calorimetry. The decomposition was investigated as a function of heating rate, sample size, inert diluent and type of sample holder, and under an atmosphere of nitrogen or air. An endotherm was observed prior to the exothermic reaction and it is suggested that melting is accompanied by breaking of hydrogen bonds. This interpretation is discussed in relation to the results of the decomposition of nitroguanidine in the accelerating rate calorimeter.
