  1. The Science of Boom! Energetic Chemistry

  2. Explosions • What exactly is an explosion???

  3. Detonation vs Deflagration • Faster than the speed of sound • Shockwave effect • Shattering • Instant Chemical Reaction proceeding forward through the compound • Requires a Detonator • Slower than the speed of sound • Confinement and compression • Particle to particle burn rate • No Detonator Required

  4. Things that go boom in the night • Composition B • C4 • Dynamite • RDX • HMX • PETN • HMTD • TATP • TNT • ANFO • Black Powder • Black Powder Sub’s • Smokeless Powder • Flash Powder

  5. Types of High Explosives

  6. Types of Low Explosives
