Chemistry of Pyrotechnics: Basic Principles and Theory
Everyone has observed chemical reactions involving pyrotechnic mixtures.
Beautiful 4th of July fireworks, highway distress signals,
solid fuel boosters for the Space Shuttle, and the black powder used
by muzzle-loading rifle enthusiasts all have a common technical background.
The chemical principles underlying... | | CSS3 Solutions: Essential Techniques for CSS3 Developers
CSS3 is the latest standard for CSS, the syntax to control the style and layout of web pages.
