NIR spectroscopy is known to provide information about the combination bands and overtones of highly anharmonic vibrations as those occurring in XH bonds (CH, NH and OH). Particularly intense and complex were the bands corresponding to the first combination region (2500&#-1900&;8239#nm) and first overtone stretching mode (2nu) of CH and NH bonds (1750&#-1450&;8239#nm). Inorganic oxidizing salts including sodium/potassium nitrate, sodium/potassium chlorate, and sodium/potassium perchlorate displayed low intense or no NIR bands. %K Explosives %K Energetic powders %K Near infrared spectroscopy %K Combination region %K Overtone. %K Química %K Chemistry %~ Biblioteca Universidad de Alcala
