Abstract

Abstract Chlorates and perchlorates, inorganic salts known for their potent oxidizing properties, find utility in various products such as pyrotechnics, matches, and disinfectants. Their chemical properties also make them suitable for homemade explosives, resulting in their extensive use by criminals. Hence, the forensic analysis of these compounds is vital for investigating crimes involving their utilization. A wide array of analytical techniques is available for detecting and quantifying these substances, offering forensic investigators an extensive toolkit to effectively analyze and identify chlorates and perchlorates in various samples. Recent research highlights the potential for leveraging the information obtained from analyzing these materials, including for intelligence purposes. The future of forensic analysis in this domain lies in extracting additional information, such as source attribution, through methods like chemometrics, thereby enhancing forensic intelligence capabilities. This article is categorized under: Forensic Chemistry and Trace Evidence > Explosive Analysis Forensic Chemistry and Trace Evidence > Trace Evidence Forensic Chemistry and Trace Evidence > Emerging Technologies and Methods

氯酸盐自制炸药的研究进展
氯酸盐和高氯酸盐是以其强氧化性而闻名的无机盐,在烟火、火柴和消毒剂等各种产品中都有应用。它们的化学性质也使它们适合自制炸药,导致它们被犯罪分子广泛使用。因此,对这些化合物进行法医分析对于调查涉及使用这些化合物的犯罪至关重要。各种各样的分析技术可用于检测和定量这些物质,为法医调查人员提供了广泛的工具包,以有效地分析和识别各种样品中的氯酸盐和高氯酸盐。最近的研究强调了利用分析这些材料获得的信息的潜力,包括用于情报目的。法医分析在这一领域的未来在于通过化学计量学等方法提取额外的信息,例如来源归属,从而增强法医情报能力。本文分为:法医化学和微量证据;炸药分析、法医化学和痕量证据微量证据法医化学与微量证据新兴技术与方法
