Abstract
This chapter concerns the overview of energetic materials. We shall focus first on the general principles to explain the different effects generated by energetic materials. These effects allow dividing them into four families: gun propellants, primary and secondary explosives, propellants, and pyrotechnics. For each family, we shall detail the molecules’ compositions, their history, and industrial processes.
