Abstract "Thermites, generally considered to be mixtures of metals and metal oxides, are an important subset of energetic materials. Describing the results of calculations on 800 possible combinations of metal and metal oxide reactants, this practical overview will serve those in energetic materials, pyrometallurgy, chemistry, and materials science"-- Provided by publisher.
