This book provides an extensive overview of energetic materials, covering their synthesis, computational modeling, applications, degradation mechanisms, and environmental impacts. It highlights the shift in military focus from traditional explosive compounds, which are heat and shock sensitive, to insensitive munitions formulations like IMX and the PAX series. The text emphasizes the need for modern energetic compounds to be both shock- and heat-insensitive while maximizing energy output upon detonation. It discusses the potential of nanoinspired and co-crystallized materials as pathways for developing next-generation explosives. This authoritative work fills a significant gap in the literature by offering a thorough analysis of these materials. It also presents a valuable overview of energetic compounds, recent advancements in future formulations, the role of nanotechnology, environmental contamination and toxicity, assessments of munitions lethality, and the application of quantitative structure–activity relationships (QSAR) in the design of energetics, along with the fate and transport of munition compounds in the environment.
