Triacetone triperoxide (TATP) is one of the most sensitive known explosives and can be easily synthesized using the commonly available chemicals acetone and hydrogen peroxide, but is difficult to be detected. In this study, In(2)O(3) nanoparticles were synthesized by a glucose-assisted solvothermal method at 120 degrees C for 18 h. The gas sensor based on In(2)O(3) nanoparticles exhibits a high response, fast response and recovery, a wide detecting range of 0.50-500 mg, good stability and excellent stability to TATP.

Detection of illicit compounds like explosives and drugs of abuse at trace levels is crucial to provide public security and health safety. A dual ambient sampling system hollow cathode discharge (HCD) ion source was developed to investigate its performance. Here, trinitrotoluene (TNT), trinitrobenzene (TNB), hexamethylene triperoxide diamine (HMTD), and triacetone triperoxide (TATP) as explosives and methamphetamine (MA) as drugs of abuse were taken as model compounds.

Background: Direct detection of the notorious explosive triacetone triperoxide (TATP) is very difficult because it lacks facile ionization and UV absorbance or fluorescence. Besides, the current indirect methods are time-consuming and need a pre-step for TATP cleavage to hydrogen peroxide. Moreover, they commonly show significant false-positive results in the presence of some camouflage which limits their field applications.

Homemade explosives, such as peroxides, nitrates, and chlorates, are increasingly abused by terrorists, criminals, and amateur chemists. The starting materials are easily accessible and instructions on how to make the explosives are described on the Internet. Safety considerations raise the need to detect these substances quickly and in low concentrations using simple methods.

Exposing different facets on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is highly desirable to enhance the performance for various applications, however, exploiting a concise and effective approach to achieve facet-controlled synthesis of MOFs remains challenging. Here, by modulating the ratio of metal precursors to ligands, the facet-engineered iron-based MOFs (Fe-MOFs) exhibits enhanced catalytic activity for Fenton reaction are explored, and the mechanism of facet-dependent performance is revealed in detail. Fully exposed (101) and (100) facets on spindle-shaped Fe-MOFs enable rapid oxidation of colorless o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to colored products, thereby establishing a dual-mode platform for the detection of hydrogen peroxide (HO) and triacetone triperoxide (TATP).

There are many factors that may affect the longevity of or guide the use of canine training aids. Literature to date has mainly focused on identifying the headspace volatiles associated with training aids or odors and only minimal research exists into how different variables may alter those volatiles. The current study examines several factors affecting canine training aids: humidity, air flow, transportation, and operational deployment, using the triacetone triperoxide polymer odor capture-and-release canine training aid (TATP POCR) as the target.
