Book Description
Subsurface contamination by 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TM), 2,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), and oxyhydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine (HMx) is a problem at many military installations associated with munitions manufacturing, loading, assembling, and packing. To support Department of Defense remediation and containment goals, information on the processes affecting the subsurface transport of these explosives is needed. Specifically, information pertaining to sorption and transformation of these explosives is needed in order to facilitate numerical model development. This study provides complementary batch and column information on TNT and RDX sorption and transformation and column information on HMX sorption and transformation. Batch and column testing included soils with a wide range of physical properties, and attention was given to sterilized and unsterilized soils. One soil was common to both batch and column. Reductive transformation was established as an important process for TNT. Measurement of reductive transformation products provided definitive evidence of TNT transformation. Reductive transformation was also suspected for RDX and HMX, although RDX and HMX transformation products were not measured.

Energetic Materials
Author: Manoj K. Shukla
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319592084
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 484
Book Description
This book offers a comprehensive account of energetic materials, including their synthesis, computational modeling, applications, associated degradation mechanisms, environmental consequences and fate and transport. This multi-author contributed volume describes how armed forces around the world are moving their attention from legacy explosive compounds, which are heat and shock sensitive (thus posing greater challenges in terms of handling and storage), to the insensitive munitions compounds/formulations such as insensitive munitions explosive (IMX) and the Picatinny Arsenal Explosive (PAX) series of compounds. The description of energetic materials focuses on explosives, pyrotechnic compositions, and propellants. The contributors go on to explain how modern generation energetic compounds must be insensitive to shock and heat but at the same time yield more energy upon explosion. Nanoinspired and/or co-crystallized energetic materials offer another route to generate next-generation energetic materials, and this authoritative book bridges a large gap in the literature by providing a comprehensive analysis of these compounds. Additionally, it includes a valuable overview of energetic materials, a detailed discussion of recent advances on future energetic compounds, nanotechnology in energetic materials, environmental contamination and toxicity, assessment of munitions lethality, the application quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) in design of energetics and the fate and transport of munition compounds in the environment.
