Course content
The subject describes synthesis and properties of chemical compounds that are used in various areas of explosive industry. Relations between structure and explosive properties are explain so that the students may suggest suitable compounds for target purposes. For example - less sensitive energetic materials primary explosives without heavy metals or propellant additives to inflating safety systems. Students also prepare his own report from suitable topic.
