Peroxide-based explosives (PBEs) are increasingly common in criminal and terrorist activity
due to their easy synthesis and high explosive power. The rise in terrorist attacks involving …

Explosives detection systems need to be able to reliably detect a wide range of explosive
materials and their vapours. The continued development and improvement of artificial …

This review paper covers the forensic-relevant literature for the analysis and detection of
explosives and explosives residues from 2016-2019 as a part of the 19 th Interpol …

This review is focused on the analysis of recent developments in the application of polymers
in the detection and quantification of target species. The work begins with a description of …

The development of sensors for the detection of triacetone triperoxide (TATP) has attracted
great attention. Here, we constructed a low-cost, portable, reusable, visible paper-based …

Perylene diimides (PDI) are a well-studied class of functional organic dyes, and in recent
years, they have been accepted as promising scaffolds for the design of small …

We report the use of a tetraborylated perylenediimide as starting material for the preparation
of a tetracorannulene-perylenediimide that is able to bind up to two fullerene-C60 molecules …

The present review presents the most recent developments concerning the application of
sensory polymers in the detection and quantification of different target species. We will firstly …

On site, sensitive and selective detection of acetone vapor at room temperature is of great
importance for health, and in particular for in air detection of triacetone triperoxide (TATP) …

We describe the proof of concept of a portable testing setup for the detection of triacetone
triperoxide (TATP), a common component in improvised explosive devices. The system …
