Central European Journal of Energetic Materials

Aims & Scope

CEJEM – the newest in Europe scientific journal on energetic materials It provides a forum for scientists interested in the exchange of practical and theoretical knowledge concerning energetic materials: propellants, explosives and pyrotechnics.

The journal focuses in particular on the latest results of research on various problems of energetic materials.

Topics: ignition, combustion and detonation phenomenon; formulation, synthesis and processing; analysis and thermal decomposition; toxicological, environmental and safety aspects of energetic materials production, application, utilization and demilitarization; molecular orbital calculations; detonation properties and ballistics; biotechnology and hazards testing CEJEM presents original research and interesting reviews.

Contributions are from experts in chemistry, physics and engineering from leading research centers in Europe, America and Asia.

All submissions are independently refereed by Editorial Board members and by external referees chosen on international basis.
