The specific heat of octahydro-1,3,5, 7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7 tetrazocine (HMX) was determined by the use of a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The specific heat for both crystalline and powdered samples was obtained from 294 to 445 K for the beta phase and from 410 to 485 K for the delta phase. The specific heat results were fitted to least squares polynomials to allow the interpolation of the data between points and extrapolation with appropriate care to higher temperatures. The effects of partially decomposed HMX samples on the specific heat were investigated also. 6 references.
