Hexanitroethane
Hexanitroethane (HNE) is an organic compound with chemical formula CNO or (ON)C-C(NO). It is a solid matter with a melting point of 135 °C.
Hexanitroethane is used in some pyrotechnic compositions as a nitrogen-rich oxidizer, e.g. in some decoy flare compositions and some propellants. Like hexanitrobenzene, HNE is investigated as a gas source for explosively pumped gas dynamic laser.
A composition of HNE as oxidizer with boron as fuel is being investigated as a new explosive.
