Energetic Materials - Exploring and Understanding

For decades, energetic materials have been the subject of R & D in many areas including synthesis, processing and charac-terization. Established materials – which have been in service for years – are understood in more detail and new materials with special properties are sought and discovered. For this both well known methods and upcoming techniques such as data mining or novel experimental technologies are important. The 51st International Annual Conference of the Fraunhofer ICT addresses the full R & D spectrum, from better under-standing, improved processing and new formulations to the synthesis of novel compounds, providing both in-depth know-ledge and alternative perspectives.Scientists participating in this conference have the opportunity to present their results and discuss them with their peers, to learn about the needs of the armed forces and to contribute their ideas for the future of energetic materials.
