The Chemistry of Explosives provides an overview of the history of explosives, taking the reader to future developments. The text on the classification of explosive materials contains much data on the physical parameters of primary and secondary explosives. The explosive processes of deflagration and detonation, including the theory of 'hotspots' for the detonation process, are introduced and many examples are provided in the detail 410 0$aRSC Paperbacks 606 $aExplosives 615 0$aExplosives. 676 $a662.2 700 $aAkhavan$b Jacqueline$01647382 712 02$aRoyal Society of Chemistry (Great Britain) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827029503321 996 $aThe chemistry of explosives$93994902 997 $aUNINA
