Energetic Materials (eBook, ePUB)

Sensitivity, Physical Properties, Thermodynamic Properties

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This publication addresses the critical need for chemists engaged in the synthesis of new energetic compounds to comprehensively evaluate physical and thermodynamic properties, as well as sensitivity to various stimuli. The book delves into established and emerging methods for predicting key properties such as crystal density, heat of formation, and melting points, providing a thorough understanding of the subject matter.

In this revised edition, we present updated insights across all chapters, exploring topics like enthalpy and entropy of fusion, heat of sublimation, and correlations among different types of sensitivities. Additionally, three new chapters focus on the assessment of energetic metal-organic complexes, including energetic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and energetic polymers, alongside strategies for predicting properties of novel energetic compounds.

This book is an essential resource for researchers and practitioners in the field, offering practical techniques and a solid foundation for advancing the synthesis and application of energetic materials. Its relevance extends to both academic and industrial settings, making it a vital addition to the literature on energetic compounds.

1. This book uniquely integrates theoretical methods with practical applications for predicting properties of energetic compounds.
2. It addresses the gap in understanding the sensitivity and stability of new materials.
3. Key features include updated methodologies, new chapters on metal-organic complexes, and comprehensive coverage of critical properties.

Autorenporträt

Professor Dr. Mohammad Hossein Keshavarz (b. 1965), received a BSc in chemistry in 1988 from Shiraz University, Iran. He also received an MSc and a PhD at Shiraz University in 1991 and 1995, respectively. From 1997 until 2008, he was Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, and Professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Malek Ashtar in Shahin Shahr, Iran. Since 1997, he has been Lecturer and researcher at the Malek Ashtar University of Technology, Iran. Keshavarz has published over 400 scientific papers in international peer-reviewed journals, five book chapters, and nine books in the field of assessment of the property, performance, and toxicity of materials (five books in English where three of them have second edition and four books in Persian).

Professor Dr. Thomas M. Klapötke, born in 1961, studied chemistry at TU Berlin and received his PhD in 1986 under the supervision of Hartmut Köpf. After his postdoctoral studies in Fredericton, New Brunswick with Jack Passmore he finished his habilitation at TU Berlin in 1990. From 1995 until 1997 Klapötke was Ramsay Professor of Chemistry at the University of Glasgow in Scotland. Since 1997 he is Professor and holds the Chair of Inorganic Chemistry at LMU Munich. In 2009 Klapötke was appointed a permanent visiting Professor for Mechanical Engineering and Chemistry at the Center of Energetic Concepts Development (CECD) in the University of Maryland (UM), College Park. In 2014 Klapötke was appointed an Adjunct Professor at the University of Rhode Island. Klapötke is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (C.Sci., C.Chem. F.R.S.C., U.K.), a member of the American Chemical Society (ACS) and the Fluorine Division of the ACS, a member of the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh), a Life Member of the International Pyrotechnics Society (IPS), a Life Member of the National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA, USA) and was appointed a Honorary Fellow of the Indian High Energy Materials Society (HEMSI) in 2011. Most of Klapötke's scientific collaborations are between LMU and the US Army Research Laboratory (ARL) in Aberdeen, MD and the US Army Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center (ARDEC) in Picatinny, NJ. Klapötke also collaborates with the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) in Champaign, IL and several industrial partners in Germany and the USA. From 2011-2012 Klapötke was a Technical Team Member of NATO's Munitions Related Contamination team (AVT-197). He is Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Engineering Science and Military Technologies, the subject Editor in the area of explosives synthesis of the Central European Journal of Energetic Materials (CEJEM) and an editorial board member of Propellants, Explosives and Pyrotechnics (PEP), Journal of Energetic Materials and Chinese Journal of Explosives and Propellants. In 2023 Klapötke received an honorary doctorate (Dr. h.c.) from the Military Technical Academy Ferdinand I in Bucharest. Klapötke has published over 950 scientific papers in international peer reviewed journals, 37 book chapters, 18 books and holds 16 patents.
