The Properties of Energetic Materials : : Sensitivity, Physical and Thermodynamic Properties / / Mohammad Hossein Keshavarz, Thomas M. Klapötke.

For a chemist who is concerned with the synthesis of new energetic compounds, it is essential to be able to assess physical and thermodynamic properties, as well as the sensitivity, of possible new energetic compounds before synthesis is attempted. Various approaches have been developed to predict i...
