It is extremely sensitive to heat, shock, friction, etc. -- This is all I've seen really on the site about AP being heat sensitive. Whats is the flash point in (F).
Can heat be a trigger/detonator?

There is no point in finding out the flash point, when you start heating it it will explode immediately. Heat can CAUSE sensitive explosives to detonate, but heat itself isn't a detonator. As for a "trigger", I don't know what you're talking about.

by saying "trigger" i think he means something that will just set it off. and yes, heat will easily make AP one cranky baby. Resulting in loud noises by the baby. (especially if confined)

acetone peroxide melts at 91C and explodes at that temperature if kept.

BY definition Flash Point is the lowest temperature where a compound can take fire on contact with a flamme!!!
As examples FP of aceton or ethanol are low like ambiant temp; that doesn't mean the compounds will take fire at those temps!!!
Maybe that when freezing cold (liquid nitrogen, carboice,-20C,...) the CTAP will not burn nor detonate or deflagrate upon contact with a flamme ???

I should have said for a better understanding:Ethanol and aceton
Those compounds will not take fire if not in contact with a flamme even over their FP like at their BP(boiling point)!!!!
