Book excerpt: Excerpt from Explosives, Vol. 1: History and Manufacture; With 77 Illustrations Since the late Mr. Oscar Guttmann published his work on the Manufacture of Explosives in 1895 no comprehensive book on this subject has appeared in English. In the interval the explosives industry has undergone many changes every branch of it has developed enormously - even that of black powder; and scientific investigations have thrown light on many of the problems that arise in the manufacture and use of explosives. Especially during the last few years many obscure points have been cleared up. It is hoped therefore that the present work will be found to supply a real want.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manufacture of Explosives, Vol. 1: A Theoretical and Practical Treatise on the History, the Physical and Chemical Properties and the Manufacture of Explosives Whilst this book was being written, a series of anarchist outrages in various parts of Europe led many Governments to seriously consider the necessity of Special legislation to prevent their recurrence. I therefore had also to consider whether the publication of a new book on explosives might not at the time be ill-advised; but the more I thought the matter over, the clearer it became to me that delay was quite unnecessary.

Download or read book Boom written by Simon Quellen Field and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2017-07-01 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black powder, the world's first chemical explosive, was originally developed during the Tang dynasty in China.It was a crude mixture at first, but over time chemists discovered the optimum proportion of sulfur, charcoal, and nitrates, as well as the best way to mix them for a complete and powerful reaction. Author and chemistry buff Simon Quellen Field takes readers on a decades-long journey through the history of things that go boom, from the early days of black powder to today's modern plastic explosives. Not just the who, when, and why, but also the how. How did Chinese alchemists come to create black powder? What accidents led to the discovery of high explosives? How do explosives actually work on a molecular scale? Boom! The Chemistry and History of Explosives reviews the original papers and patents written by the chemists who invented them, to shed light on their development, to explore the consequences of their use for good and ill, and to give the reader a basic understanding of the chemistry that makes them possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gunpowder studies are still in their infancy despite the long-standing civil and military importance of this explosive since its discovery in China in the mid-ninth century AD. In this second volume by contributors who meet regularly at symposia of the International Committee for the History of Technology (ICOHTEC), the research is again rooted in the investigation of the technology of explosives manufacture, but the fact that the chapters range in scope from the Old World to the New, from sources of raw materials in south-east Asia to the complications of manufacture in the West, shows that the story is more than the simple one of how an intriguing product was made. This volume is the first to develop the implications of the subject, not just in the sense of relating it to changing military technologies, but in that of seeing the securing of gunpowder supplies as fundamental to the power of the state and imperial pretensions.The search for saltpetre, for example, an essential ingredient of gunpowder, became a powerful engine of sea-going European trade from the early seventeenth century. Smaller states like Venice were unable to form these distant connections, and so to sustain a gunpowder army. Stronger states like France and Britain were able to do so, and became even more powerful as the demand for improved explosives fostered national strengths - leading to a development of the sciences, especially chemistry, in the former case, and of manufacturing techniques in the latter.
