Abstract
A program named ''FCALC'' has been developed in BASIC language to calc ulate the detonation volumes (through a factor F) for various explosiv es as well as for any new organic structure. The number and kind of su bstituents that need to be incorporated into an unsubstituted organic compound in order to achieve maximum F factor, and thus maximum detona tion velocity, can also be predicted. The program calculates F factors for a user-defined set of combinations of substituents.
