continues in this new and revised 3rd edition to provide fundamental scientific insights into primary and secondary explosives, propellants, rocket fuel and pyrotechnics. The contents of the previous edition were meticulously updated and recent research developments added to this graduate-level textbook. Applications in military and civil fields are discussed. Especially environmental issues caused by lead-based primary explosives, perchlorates in pyrotechnic formulations and modern signal flare compositions are discussed and current research presented. Further additions include the understanding of the mechanism and continuing development of laser ignition methods, techniques for the characterization of detonators and their output as well as principles and effects of underwater explosions.

New in the 3rd Edition:

• Revised and updated content, new study problems and questions.

• Extended examination of the application of ionic liquids in the field and hydrodynamics.

• Intended for advanced students in chemistry, materials science and engineering, as well as to all those working in defense technology.
