It describes the physico-chemical properties, performance, sensitivity, GHS and REACH classification of 477 common metals, non-metals and compounds that are used as explosives, oxidizers, fuels, binders and additives, as well as the thermochemical properties of 446 pure substances that can occur as reaction products. The encyclopaedia also provides information on the composition, performance and sensitivity of almost 300 explosives and propellants formulations and around 200 pyrotechnic compositions. In addition, civil and military applications for explosives, their chemical and physical principles, test methods, institutions and, finally, persons who have made an international contribution to the development and investigation of explosives are described.
