The International Explosives Conference (IEC) champions cutting-edge, deep-science research conducted internationally in the energetic materials sector. Designed for professionals, academics and researchers, it is involved in the fundamental science of explosives and other energetic materials. Set firmly in the context of ‘future developments’, IEC-2022 presents and debates the themes of: energetic materials and characterisation; manufacturing and processing; response to stimuli; advances in experimental techniques and diagnostics and theory, modelling and simulation.IEC-2022 took place in London from 22 to 24 June 2022 and this publication provides a record of the proceedings for the oral presentations and display posters that were showcased at the event.

Held for the second time in the UK, the international conference in explosives and other energetics took place in June 2024. These conferences host international academics and practitioners who share and showcase research undertaken in this area. Particularly important is the part the UK plays, as one of the world leaders in this area, with the opportunity to provide unclassified and novel research.This book contains the proceedings of this meeting and comprises unique, peer reviewed papers which are highly desirable for researchers in this field. Divided into two sections on synthesis, characterisation and diagnostics and artificial intelligence, simulation and modelling, the book captures the fundamental science of explosives and energetic materials that underpins deeper understanding of explosives, propellants, pyrotechnics and gas generators. All professionals from early careers through to subject matter experts will find topics of interest in this snapshot of research.

This concise, easy-to-read book outlines the basic principles needed to understand the chemical mechanisms of explosion. Written for students with no previous knowledge of explosives but some understanding of chemical reactions in mind, it takes the reader through the history of explosives and introduces the concepts of high explosives, propellants and pyrotechnics. Covering combustion, deflagration, and detonation; ignition, initiation, and thermal decomposition; thermochemistry, thermodynamics and kinetics, the text includes detailed formulations and reactions presented with thermochemical calculations to aid understanding. This edition includes environmental legislation and its impact on explosives, together with a section on safety hazard tests. It also contains the latest developments in synthesis and manufacturing of explosives. Covering all aspects of the properties of explosives, The Chemistry of Explosives is a unique text which introduces difficult subjects in a readable manner. Ideal for A-level students and new graduates with no previous knowledge of explosive materials, it will also be useful to anyone needing succinct information on the subject, such as the more experienced chemist in the explosives sector.
