David I.A. Millar's thesis explores the effects of extreme
conditions on energetic materials. His study identifies and
structurally characterises new polymorphs obtained at high
pressures and/or temperatures. The performance of energetic
materials (pyrotechnics, propellants and explosives) can depend on
a number of factors including sensitivity to detonation, detonation
velocity, and chemical and thermal stability. Polymorphism and
solid-state phase transitions may therefore have significant
consequences for the performance and safety of energetic materials.
In order to model the behaviour of these important materials
effectively under operational conditions it is essential to obtain
detailed structural information at a range of temperatures and
pressures.
