✦ Synopsis

Metastable molecues possessing high reactivity can be employed as explosives, propellants, and pyrotechnics. The properties, sensitivities and kinetics of energetic materials used as nitroaromatics and nitramines, which are in both military and civilian use, are discussed and the theory of detonation described.
