FOX-7 is similar to the insensitive chemical compound [[TATB]], which is a [[benzene]] ring compound with three [[amino]] and three [[nitro group]]s.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal|doi=10.1016/j.tet.2005.05.010|title=The reactivity of 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethene (FOX-7)|year=2005|last1=Hervé|first1=Grégoire|last2=Jacob|first2=Guy|last3=Latypov|first3=Nikolaj|journal=Tetrahedron|volume=61|issue=28|pages=6743}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; FOX-7 has a two-carbon backbone rather than a [[benzene]] ring, but the [[amino]] and [[nitro compound|nitro]] groups have similar effects in both cases according to published reports on the sensitivity and chemical decay processes of FOX-7.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Anniyappan&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; FOX-7 is stoichiometrically identical (but structurally unrelated)&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Lochert&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; to the explosives and propellants [[RDX]] and [[HMX]], and therefore produces the same quantity of gas per gram, a key determinant of performance.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Anniyappan&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal|doi=10.1016/j.jhazmat.2006.03.034|title=Synthesis, characterization and thermolysis of 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethylene (FOX-7) and its salts|year=2006|last1=Anniyappan|first1=M.|last2=Talawar|first2=M.B.|last3=Gore|first3=G.M.|last4= Venugopalan|first4=S.|last5=Gandhe|first5=B.R.|journal=Journal of Hazardous Materials|volume=137|issue=2|pages=812–9|pmid=16701943}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By various measures, such as dropped-weight impact, friction force, temperature of ignition, and response to heating under confinement, it is less sensitive than the benchmark explosive RDX, while having performance slightly greater than the same.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Lochert&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite techreport |first=Lochert |last=Ian J. |title=FOX-7 - A New Insensitive Explosive |number=DSTO-TR-1238 |publisher=Defense Science &amp;amp; Technology Organization |publication-place=Fisherman&amp;#039;s Bend, Victoria, Australia |date=November 2001|year=2001 |url=https://apps.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a399359.pdf |access-date=2021-01-25 |archive-date=2021-01-25 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210125141310/https://apps.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a399359.pdf |url-status=live }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Its explosive properties appear extremely favorable; in addition to its insensitive properties, the detonation velocity of mixtures of 80% FOX-7 plus [[binder (material)|binders]] is as high as [[Composition B]], and nearly pure FOX-7 based [[plastic bonded explosive]]s are slightly superior to [[RDX]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite journal|last1=Latypov|first1=Nikolai V.|last2=Bergman|first2=Jan|last3=Langlet|first3=Abraham|last4=Wellmar|first4=Ulf|last5=Bemm |first5=Ulf|year=1998|title=Synthesis and reactions of 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethylene|journal=Tetrahedron|volume=54|issue=38 |pages=11525–11536|doi=10.1016/s0040-4020(98)00673-5}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; FOX-7 has been calculated to have a [[detonation velocity]] of 8,870&amp;amp;nbsp;m/s.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.intdetsymp.org/detsymp2002/PaperSubmit/FinalManuscript/pdf/Karlsson-165.pdf Detonation and Sensitivity Properties of FOX-7 and Formulations Containing FOX-7] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050522150513/http://www.intdetsymp.org/detsymp2002/PaperSubmit/FinalManuscript/pdf/Karlsson-165.pdf |date=2005-05-22 }}, Karlsson et al., 2002, accessed Aug 25, 2005&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Charges composed of [[Ethylene-vinyl acetate|EVA]]-coated FOX-7 granules pressed into pellets of 92% theoretical maximum density were found to have a detonation velocity of 7730 m/s, compared to 7630 m/s for a similar RDX/EVA composition, and 5% greater detonation pressure.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Lochert&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

At that time, FOX-7 could be purchased from NEXPLO Bofors AB at SEK3200/kg.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Lochert&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Due to its small-scale production, the cost of FOX-7 is relatively high. However, the production is based on commercial starting material and the synthesis is uncomplicated.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;US Patent 6312538 - Chemical compound suitable for use as an explosive, intermediate and method for preparing the compound&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FOX-7 is an attractive subject for research and development due to its combination of insensitivity and power. FOX-7 performs similarly to [[RDX]], one of the most powerful explosives and propellants in use, unlike other insensitive high explosives under investigation, such as TATB, [[nitrotriazolone]], [[TEX (explosive)|TEX]], and 2,6-diamino-3,5-dinitropyrazine-1-oxide (LLM-105). Due to the need for less sensitive munitions, FOX-7 is being investigated at many military research centers,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Anniyappan&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; including in Australia, India, the USA, and Sweden.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Lochert&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
