FUNDAMENTALS OF SAFETY FOR EXPERIMENTAL PROCESSING, HANDLING, AND STORAGE OF HIGH-ENERGY MATERIALS

Abstract

This document presents safety fundamentals relevant to operations with almost all materials capable of sudden release of chemical energy and chemical products that may be harmful or dangerous. These fundamentals are intended primarily as training topics and as guides for evaluating safety programs in t e fields of explosives, propellants, pyrotechnic, and the like. While the fundamentals were developed as training aids in a research and development organization, it is believed that they are applicable to almost any operation with dangerous materials.
