In this paper, we report a quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model development for friction sensitivity prediction of nitramine energetic materials. The model is obtained by means of a sophisticated method, namely, genetic function approximation and consists of 10 descriptors. As a training set, we have applied 80 nitramine energetic materials of a few families, both molecular and salt-like. The corresponding test set included 30 compounds. As a result, we have obtained a good correlation with R2 = 0.90. Only two descriptors, the heat of formation and quadrupole components, need semi-empirical quantum-chemical calculations, while the rest ones are so-called “fast descriptors” meaning the relatively short time of the prediction. Using the obtained QSPR model along with our recent method for fast crude estimation of the detonation properties based on empirical formulas we have modified a few energetic salts in order to obtain materials with better friction sensitivity and detonation performance. This was mainly done by changing the constituting ions: thus, 10 nitramine energetic materials with improved characteristics were proposed. |
