1.1 This is a compilation of terms and corresponding definitions related to the analysis of explosives. Legal or scientific terms that are generally understood or defined adequately in other readily available sources may not be included.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.3 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.


3.1 These terms have particular application to explosives analysis. In addition, several sources of definitions were used in the development of this terminology: Hawley’s Condensed Chemical Dictionary, Sixteenth Edition (1);3 Practical Bomb Scene Investigation, Third Edition (2); Forensic Investigation of Explosions (3); Chemistry of Pyrotechnics, Third Edition (4); Explosives, Seventh Completely Revised and Updated Edition (5); Dictionary of Explosions & Explosives (6); PICATINNY Encyclopedia of Explosives and Related Items (7, 8); Merriam-Webster.com Dictionary (9); and DOD Dictionary of Military and Associated Terms (10). A suitable definition was developed after all of the sources were found wanting.
