TL;DR: 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethylene has been synthesised by treatment of acetamidinium chloride with diethylmalonate to obtain 2-methyl-pyrimidine-4,6-dione which on nitration followed by hydrolysis gave FOX-7.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the recent work done in the frontier areas of advanced novel high energy materials, including oxidizers, binders, plasticizers, high energy density materials, and insensitive high-energy materials.

TL;DR: This paper presents electrostatic sensitivity data in terms of zero ignition probability data (E(SE0)) of some of the initiatory explosives such as nickel/cobalt hydrazinium nitrate, silver azide, lead azide and mercury salt of 5-nitro tetrazole and the electrostatic spark sensitivity of cap compositions.

TL;DR: There is a need of fine 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene (TATB) (2-5 microm) for various high explosive formulations to achieve desired mechanical strength, ease in processing and finally, provide better performance of end product.

TL;DR: The development of user-friendly computer code for the prediction of heat of formation based on two approaches, which is a totally integrated software for computing most of the vital parameters of HEMs requiring mainly the molecular structural information of an explosive under consideration.
