- ======RDX======
- [RDX...cyclotrimethylenetrinitra-mine.
- Also known as cyclonite.
- Secondary high explosive.
- Heat of reaction 5.694 kilojoules
- per gram. Gas volume creation
- 908 cubic cm per gram. 140% as
- prisant as TNT. Effect of
- prolonged storage is negligible.]
- Stuph Needed:
- -------------
- Hexamethylenetetramine (also known as hexamine)
- ...available from
- drugstores as urotropine, hexamin,
- and methenamine. Used to cure
- urinary infections.
-
- Strong Nitric Acid...chem supply
- stores.
- Acetone...from drug and hardware stores.
- Used as a paint solvent.
- Graduated cylinder or measuring cups
- Thermometer (20-100 degrees C or 68-212
- degrees F)
- Several quart canning jars
- Two large basins or bowls made
- of metal.
- Paper towels
-
- Procedure:
-
- 1. Place 1/2 cup (120 ml) of
- nitric acid in a large canning
- jar and bring the temperature to
- between 20 and 30 degrees C
- (68-86 F) by putting the jar in
- a basin of cold water. If
- necessary, swirl the canning jar
- around the basin of cold water
- to bring the temperature down.
-
- 2. Weigh or measure out 70
- grams by weight, 18 teaspoons
- by volume, of the hexamine and
- start adding the salt-like
- hexamine slowly, 1/2 teaspoon
- at a time, during a 15 minute
- time period. Maintain the
- temperature between 20-30
- degrees C. while stirring gently
- with the thermometer. Control
- the temperature by dipping more
- and less of the can in the water.
-
- 3. When all of the hexamine is
- dissolved in the acid, heat the
- solution to 55 degrees C (131 F)
- by placing the jar in a
- basin of hot water. Maintain
- this temperature for 10 minutes.
-
- 4. After heating the solution
- for 10 minutes, remove the canning
- jar from the basin of hot water
- and place it in the basin of
- cold water. Cool the canning
- jar to 20 degrees C.
-
- 5. When the temperature is 20 C,
- add 3 cups (750 ml) of cold
- water to the solution and a white
- salt will appear.
-
- ***********************************
-
- The white precipitated salt is
- *RDX explosive, and it should be
- handled with care from this point
- on.
- ************************************
-
- 6. Filter the acid/water/RDX
- solution through a paper towel
- covering the mouth of anotherjar.
-
- 7. Wash the RDX crystals off of
- the paper towel and into a canning
- jar, using an additional 3 cups
- of fresh, cold water. Add a
- teaspoon of sodium carbonate to
- neutralize the acid and stir
- rapidly for 2 to 3 minutes,
- then filter again.
-
- 8. The crude product can be
- dried out on the paper towel
- filter. It is suitable for
- fairly immediate use, or it can
- be purified.
-
- 9. To purify RDX, fill a
- canning jar 2/3 full of acetone.
- Heat the acetone by placing the jar
- in a basin of hot simmering water,
- then add RDX, a tablespoon at a
- time, until it completely
- dissolves in the acetone.
-
- 10. After the maximum amount of
- RDX has been dissolved in the
- hot acetone, allow the solution
- to cool to room temperature, then
- let stand for one more hour.
-
- 11. The RDX will form a salt
- once again. Filter out the
- RDX and spread it to dry on a
- paper towel as before.
-
- *****************
- RDX is not too *
- *sensitive to *
- *heat and shock*
- *but it is very*
- *sensitive to *
- *friction. Thus*
- *use great care*
- *when packing. *
- ****************
-
- Using the amount of chems given
- in this article, you should
- get about 1 1/2 ounces of RDX
- crystals of very good quality
- if you purified it. Two or three
- batches will be enough to make
- a three inch hole in sheet metal
- (say the side of a car). 8-10
- ounces will be enough to do
- enough blast overpressure to
- take out the windows of a room.

- ========P.O.L========
-
- [Petroleum Oil/Liquid charge.
- Designed for defeating tanks
- of flamable liquids or gases.]
- Stuph Needed:
- -------------
- Soap dishes containing two
- seperate halves, the bottom flat
- half fitting into the top
- bevelled half (standard soap dish)
-
- Any homemade high explosive
- Thermite Incendiary
- Detonator
- Small alinco horseshoe magnets,
- double sided tape, or both.
-
- Procedure
- ----------
-
- 1. Seperate the two halves of the
- soap dish. Drill hole in top and
- insert detonator.
-
- 2. Fill 1/2 of the bottom half
- with a metalized incendiary such
- as thermite or aluminum granules.
- Thermite: 3 parts iron oxide
- powder and 2 parts aluminum
- powder, by volume.
-
- 3. Fill remaining half of bottom
- of soap dish with any powerful
- homemade explosive.
-
- 4. Fill 1/2 of top half with
- the explosive.
-
- 5. Secure halves together with
- tape. Stick on target with
- tape and/or magnets. Detonate.
