[b]Abstract[/b]. This paper reviews the current state and future developments of melt-cast high explosives. First the compositions, properties and methods of preparation of trinitrotoluene based (TNT) conventional mixtures with aluminum, hexogen (RDX) or octogen (HMX) are described. In the newer, less sensitive explosive formulations, TNT is replaced with dinitroanisole (DNANDNANDNAN) and nitrotriazolone (NTONTONTO), nitroguanidine (NG) or ammonium perchlorate (AP) are the replacement for RDRDX and HMX. Plasticized wax or polymer-based binder systems for melt castable explosives are also included. Hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene (HPTB) is the binder of choice, but polyethylene glycol, and polycaprolactone with energetic plasticizers are also used. The most advanced melt-cast explosives are compositions containing energetic thermoplastic elastomers and novel highly energetic compounds (including nitrogen rich molecules) in whose particles are nanosized and practically defect-less.[b]Keywords[/b]: melt-cast explosives, detonation parameter
