Energy Sources. In explosive chemistry the energy released by rapid chemical reaction is ueed to provide heat, expand gas, create blast shock, provide fragmentation, and to create forces for propulsion... 

Thermochemistry is an important part of explosive chemistry it provides information on the type of chemical reactions, energy changes, mechanisms and kinetics which occur when a material undergoes an explosion. This chapter will carry out theoretical thermochemical calculations on explosive parameters, but it must be noted that the results obtained by such calculations will not always agree with those obtained experimentally, since experimental results will vary according to the conditions employed.

The major uses of toluene are in high-octane (Pb-free) motor fuels, paints, dyes, plastics, detergents and expls. The usual route to useful expls is by the nitration of toluene to mono-, di-, and trinitro derivatives.
