- ANARCHY 'N' EXPLOSIVES
- =====> VOLUME 2 <=====
-
- This volume defines a few varieties of misc explosives, charges, and
- whatever I had in mind at that time. Anyway, these formulas are not
- as precise in measurements for they were given in brief summary.
- However, they will work, and if used correctly can be safe and "fun".
-
- FRENCH AMMONAL:
- -------------------
- Type: Low Explosive
- Ingredients: 86% Ammonium Nitrate
- 6% Stearic Acid
- 8% Aluminum Powder
- Description: French ammonal is an easily improvised low explosive
- mixture. It is generally less effective than an equal
- weight of TNT. The material is loaded by pressing it into
- a suitable container. Initiation by an Engineer's special
- blasting cap is recommended.
- Comments: This material was tested. It is effective.
- References: TM 31-201-1, Unconventional Warfare Devices and Techniques,
- para 1401.
-
- TETRYTOL:
- -------------
- Type: High Explosive
- Ingredients: 75% Tetryl
- 25% TNT
- Description: Tetryol is a high explosive bursting charge. It is used as
- a demolition explosive, a bursting charge for mines, and
- in artillery shells. The explosive force of tetrytol is
- approximately the same as that of TNT. It may be initiated
- by a blasting cap. Tetrytol is usually loaded by casting.
- Comments: This material was tested. It is effective.

- TM 9-1910, Military Explosives, page 188.
-
- IMPROVISED PLASTIC EXPLOSIVE FILLER:
- ----------------------------------------
- Type: High Explosive
- Ingredients: Finely Powdered Potassium Chlorate Cdata bstals
- Petroleum Jelly **MIX THOUROUGHLY**
- Description: This plastic explosive filler can be detonated with a
- No. 8 commercial blasting cap or with any military
- blasting cap. The explosive must be stored in a waterproof
- container until ready to use.
- Comments: This material was tested. It is effective.
- References: TM 31-210, Improvised Munitions, sec I, No. 1.
-
- FLAMABILITY OF GASES:
- -------------------------
- Type: Gas Explosive
- Ingredients: Explosive Gas
- Description: Under some conditions, common gases act as fuel. When mixed
- with air, they will burn rapidly or even explode. For some
- fuel-air mixtures, the range over which the explosion can
- occur is quite wide while for others the limits are narrow.
- The upper and lower amounts of common fuels that will cause
- an ignitable mixture are shown in the table below. The
- quantity shown is the percentage by volume of air. If the
- fuel-air mixture is too lean or too rich, it will not
- ignite. The amounts shown are therefore called limits of
- inflamability.
- Gases (% by volume of air)
- Fuel (Gas) Lower Limit Upper Limit
- ------------------------------- ----------- -----------
- Water Gas Or Blue Gas 7.0 72
- Natural Gas 4.7 15
- Hydrogen 4.0 75
- Acetylene 2.5 81
- Propane 2.2 10
- Butane 1.9 9
-
- Comments: These fuels have been tested under labratory conditions.
- They are effective. Ignition depends on method of
- initiation, uniformity of mixture, and physical conditions.
