This paper provides an overview of the main developments over the past nine years in the
study of the sensitivity of energetic materials (EM) to impact, shock, friction, electric spark …

The performance of an energetic compound is mainly decided by parameters such as
density, oxygen balance, heat of formation, and stability. Among these properties, density is …

High energy and moderate sensitivity are the two most important demands for modern
energetic materials. The powerful CL-20 and its previously obtained derivatives do not meet …

The coalescence of metal nanoparticles in colloidal solutions is a universal and ubiquitous
phenomenon. Using this behavior, a simple yet effective route is developed that enables the …

Abstract A synthetic approach to 5, 11‐dehydro‐5H, 11H‐[1, 2, 3, 4] tetrazino [5′, 6′: 4,
5][1, 2, 3] triazolo [2, 1‐a][1, 2, 3] benzotriazole 1, 3‐dioxide (5) and 5, 11‐dehydro‐5H, 11H …

For novel high-energy low-sensitivity energetic materials, a series of novel cycloalkanes
derivatives Cm (N–NO2) m (m= 3–8) were theoretically designed by substitution of the …

The first aliphatic nitro‐NNO‐azoxy compounds were synthesized by substitutive nitration of
appropriate tert‐butyl‐NNO‐azoxy compounds with nitronium tetrafluoroborate. Nitro (nitro …

A new energetic compound, namely a secondary explosive (5, 5′, 6, 6′‐tetranitro‐2, 2′‐
bibenzimidazole, TNBBI) with high thermal stability is described. TNBBI is synthesized …

High endothermicity is one of the most important factors in the design of high-performance
energetic materials for a new generation of rocket technologies. Taking this into account, in …

This current review starts with the previous paper covering explosives analysis from 2007-
2010 presented in 2010 by Richard Strobel. It was extensive due to “the improved computer …
