Pełny opis: |
(tylko po angielsku) The nature of explosions: physical, nuclear and chemical explosions. Types of explosive transformations: burning, deflagration, detonation. Thermochemistry of explosives: oxygen balance, decomposition reactions, heat and temperature of explosion, explosive power. Basic properties and test methods for explosives sensitivity, stability and performance of explosives. Classification and general characterization of explosives: the history, present and future development of explosives. Nitration – reagents, methods and mechanisms: aromatic and aliphatic C-nitration, N-nitration, O-nitration, technological aspects of nitration process. Manufacture, properties and application of the commoner explosives: TNT, TATB, HNS, DADNE, NTO, NG, NC, PETN, RDX, HMX, HNIW, ADN; primary explosives: LA, LS, MF. Introduction to propellants and pyrotechnics: composition, manufacture and properties of gun and rocket propellants, heat, smoke, light, gas, noise generating pyrotechnics. Advanced energetic compounds: new energetic CHNO compounds and all-nitrogen materials. Advanced explosive compositions: novel melt-cast explosives, thermobaric explosives, nanomixtures and nanocomposites, reactive materials. Laboratories: 1. Synthesis of DADNE, RDX or PETN (4 hours) 2. Synthesis of LA or MF and casting of TNT charges (4 hours) 3. Preparation and testing of firecrackers, flares, and smoke producing mixtures (4 hours) 4. Synthesis of triaminoguanidine azotetrazolate (TAGAZ) or 3,3’-diamino-4,4’-azoxyfurazan (DAAF) (4 hours) Seminar’s subject matter: 1. Thermochemical calculations (4 hours); 2. Indirect methods of nitration (2 hours); 3. Pyrotechnic mixtures and devices (2 hours); 4. Energetic nanocomposites and reactive mixtures (2 hours); 5. Thermobaric explosives (2 hours). |
