Table of ContentsIntroduction Basic Chemical Principles Components of High-Energy Mixtures Pyrotechnic Principles Ignition and Propagation Sensitivity Heat Compositions: Ignition Mixes, Delays, Thermites, and Propellants Color and Light Production Smoke and Sound Appendix A Appendix B IndexReviewsI think that the time has come to modernize the design and production of pyrotechnics and I actually plan to see whether these local companies are interested in learning the chemical principles behind their successful business. I certainly plan to use Chemistry of Pyrotechnics: Basic Principles and Theory for any such class. I would highly recommend this book for anyone who is fascinated by pyrotechnic displays. You will learn a great deal by reading it. -Peter M. Smith, in Journal of Chemical Education, April 2012 This is a fascinating book that should be of interest to all those involved in the application of chemistry to the more artistically rewarding aspects of the subject. -Chromaographia, 2012 This is a fascinating book that should be of interest to all those involved in the application of chemistry to the more artistically rewarding aspects of the subject. --Chromaographia, 2012 Author InformationChestertown, Maryland, USA Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
