Home Made Explosives (HME) Detection System Grant: "This project is in support of the ongoing effort by S&T/DHS to counter the recent increase from liquid explosives threat. S&T’s goal is to investigate any and all potential detection technologies capable of detecting and distinguishing explosives and flammable liquids from benign liquids (drinks, lotions, hygiene products, contact lens solutions, etc.). Homemade Explosives (HME) such as black powder, triacetonetriperoxide (TATP), hexamethylene-triperoxidediamine (HMTD), chlorates, and perchlorates mixed with sugar or other fuels have come to be used instead of commercial explosives."
