Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Papers on Modern Explosives The last few years in the pages of Arms and Ewploslves. I am indebted to Mr max baker, the editor of that journal, for his courteous permission to republish them in a collected form. The earliest literature of modern explosives is, in many cases, not readily accessible, and it often contains observations and experiments which are generally considered to be the results of much later investigation. The unevenness of style in the various papers may be criticized, and I would, therefore, like to point out that the original composition has been followed as closely as possible. Abel's work, extending as it does over 110 pages of the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, has, of necessity, been greatly compressed, and I have, for convenience of reference, grouped it under various headings, and in many cases reduced tabulated results to statements of fact. The title of the book covers a much wider field than has actually been dealt with, but I hope that these papers may serve as a useful reference to some of the pioneer work upon which the vast industry of modern explosives has been erected. My thanks are due to Mr E. R. Chrystall, e.sc., and Mr E. B. Adams, b.sc., for reading the proof, and I am further.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Researches on Modern Brisant Nitro Explosives Fliirscheim1 has demonstrated that tetranitroaniline can easily be transformed into trinitroamidophenol, even at the ordinary tem perature, if there is added to the acetone solution of it an 'aqueous solution of sodium acetate. As we have previously shown, apropos of tetranitroaniline, because of water being present with the acetone as well as sodium acetate, the alkaline reaction of this latter ought to accelerate the transformation. We always prepare the trinitro amidophenol by dissolving 100 g. Of tetranitroaniline in 600 cc. Of acetone with the addition of a little water. As soon as the tetra nitro compound is dissolved, we distil off the acetone until the tetra nitrophenol crystallizes out; this is then dried, washed with cold alcohol and then recrystallized, at first from alcohol and then from benzene.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Explosive Materials, a Series of Lectures Delivered Before the College De France, at Paris: To Which Is Added a Short Historical Sketch of Gunpowder The subject of explosives is, chiefly through the labors of M. Berthelot, now recognized as a part of the exten sive subject of thermo-chemistry. A certain amount of chemical action in volved in any particular combustion, means to the chemist a determinate fixed amount of sensible heat evolved, and an equally determinate amount of possible mechanical effect'. Thus the relative value of various explosive com pounds may be determined with a fair degree of certainty from a knowledge of the chemical elements concerned. The modern theory here. Recognized is the basis of the manufacture of the various forms of explosives Which arenow adapted to such a wide variety of purposes; the arts of peace requiring even more than the art oi war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

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 A Manual on Explosives It remained, however, for the German monk Schwarz to first utilize this explosive mixture as a propellant to throw a mass of stone or iron through the air in a more efficient manner than had been possible with the purely mechanical means formerly employed, such as the catapult and the crossbow. Schwarz's invention of firearms is now generally concluded to have taken place about the year 1313, and shortly afterwards, in the reign of Edward 111, we find in the accounts of the -royal Household items relating to the purchase of sulphur and saltpetre for the guns, and it is a further established fact that guns or bombards, _ as they were then called, were used by the English at the Battle of Cre in the year 1346.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Explosives The early uses of gunpowder were confined to warfare, and no use seems to have been made of it for blasting purposes for several hundred years. It was originally used in the form of crude hand grenades, and probably was at first of most use in striking terror into the enemy. Cannon were first used by the English in I 346 at the battle of Crecy. But seem to have been used a few years prior to this in the hispano-moorish wars.
