In this paper, we report on the preparation of novel cross-reactive optical microsensors for
high-speed detection of low-level explosives and explosives-like vapors. Porous silica …

The explosive charge within a landmine is the source for a mixture of chemical vapors that
form a distinctive'chemical signature'indicative of a landmine. The concentration of these …

The purpose of the Explosives Fate and Transport (EF and T) experiments is to define in
detail the accessible trace chemical signature produced by the explosives contained in …

Trinitrotoluene (TNT) explosives contain small amounts of dinitrotoluene (DNT). DNT exhibit
a higher vapor pressure than TNT which indicates higher concentration of DNT than of TNT …

Chemical vapors emanating from the explosive charge within a landmine form a” chemical
