Abstract: The Jouguet theory allows one to estimate the detonation velocity from the known shock adiabat of the product of a solid-state chemical reaction initiated by a shock wave. Using manganese and zinc chalcogenides as an example, it is shown that such estimates are close to experimental detonation velocities in these systems.

Keywords: detonation, shock adiabat, Hugoniot equation, solid, heat.
