Heat Flow Calorimetry applied with microcalorimeters and in part with other instruments as DSC and ARC has proven to be a very helpful and suitable tool in assessing the thermal behaviour of energetic materials related to safety, decomposition kinetics, reaction behaviour, performance, in-service time prediction and others. Energetic materials comprise propellants, explosives, gas generators, pyrotechnics and energetic chemicals in industrial use as well. The 7th HFCS-EM will be an international forum of experts. Industrial safety aspects treated with HFC are included in the
list of topics.
