Chemistry & explosives science

Regulated literature and a licensed person only. We do not teach this.

Study notes. Not a certificate. Not a licence. Not NEBOSH, PESO, ISEE, or IDE. We never design the charge, spacing, or the cut. Site hours and statutory papers have no video substitute.

1. General chemistry: bonding, moles, stoichiometry.

   We will not teach this. Charge, spacing, burden, cut geometry, explosive formulation, initiation design — licensed people and the named issuer where you work. This line is on the map so you know the skill exists. It is not a lecture and not a recipe.

2. Thermochemistry — enthalpy, heat of reaction, energy density.

   We will not teach this. Charge, spacing, burden, cut geometry, explosive formulation, initiation design — licensed people and the named issuer where you work. This line is on the map so you know the skill exists. It is not a lecture and not a recipe.

3. Oxidation–reduction and oxygen balance — why an explosive formulation is what it is.

   We will not teach this. Charge, spacing, burden, cut geometry, explosive formulation, initiation design — licensed people and the named issuer where you work. This line is on the map so you know the skill exists. It is not a lecture and not a recipe.

4. Combustion → deflagration → detonation: the transition, and why the distinction is the whole subject.

   We will not teach this. Charge, spacing, burden, cut geometry, explosive formulation, initiation design — licensed people and the named issuer where you work. This line is on the map so you know the skill exists. It is not a lecture and not a recipe.

5. Detonation physics — shock, detonation velocity, CJ state, brisance vs heave.

   We will not teach this. Charge, spacing, burden, cut geometry, explosive formulation, initiation design — licensed people and the named issuer where you work. This line is on the map so you know the skill exists. It is not a lecture and not a recipe.

6. Commercial explosive families: dynamites/gelatins, emulsions, watergels, ANFO, boosters. Properties, sensitivity, water resistance, gassing.

   We will not teach this. Charge, spacing, burden, cut geometry, explosive formulation, initiation design — licensed people and the named issuer where you work. This line is on the map so you know the skill exists. It is not a lecture and not a recipe.

7. Initiation systems — detonators (electric, non-electric, electronic), detonating cord, relays, delay elements.

   We will not teach this. Charge, spacing, burden, cut geometry, explosive formulation, initiation design — licensed people and the named issuer where you work. This line is on the map so you know the skill exists. It is not a lecture and not a recipe.

8. Storage, transport, deterioration, misfire chemistry and disposal.

   We will not teach this. Charge, spacing, burden, cut geometry, explosive formulation, initiation design — licensed people and the named issuer where you work. This line is on the map so you know the skill exists. It is not a lecture and not a recipe.
