Modern Methods and Applications in Analysis of Explosives

The book discusses new scientific developments in analysis of explosives and their applications. The areas of application include law enforcement, aviation security and environmental protection, subjects which are closely related to explosives analysis. The book is organised in six chapters covering explosive compounds and mixtures, chromatographic methods, mass spectrometric methods, analysis of explosives residues, environmental analysis of explosives and detection of hidden explosives. Modern Methods and Applications in Analysis of Explosives is written as a reference book for chemists in analytical and forensic laboratories, and for graduate students in analytical chemistry and forensic sciences.
