Granulated, stabilized alpha -and beta -octogen

摘要

The current invention treats alpha -octogene which, with the aid of a new procedure, has been coated with synthetic materials in such a manner that it does not convert into beta -octogene at room temperature The coating is done at temperatures between 30 DEG and 60 DEG C. from an aqueous slurry; this causes granulates to form which can be heated to temperatures of 100 DEG C. without a rearrangement to beta -octogene to occur; even a grain growth does not take place. The granulates according to the invention are pourable and can be easily dosaged. beta -octogene can be coated in the same manner, particularly if it is coated as very fine grain of less than 50 mu m according to the invention. Thus, the current invention includes also the particularly fine beta -octogene, coated according to the current procedure, which shows the same properties as the required alpha -octogene.
