Fertilizer and HTH Mix

Fertilizer and HTH Mix

by Smoooooth Joe

I discovered this by accident and do not suggest you try it...

What I did was I mixed a 'bit' (Not sure on quantities as I didn't take notes and didn't know what would happen. Just roughly equal amounts.) of common HTH and ammonium nitrate fertilizer together. I did this in a small baked beans can, you know the kind. I was just mixing them a bit when the stuff began to smoke spontaniously. I, stupidly,...

Extremely easy way to make Hydrogen Gas

by rossi

This is a very easy way to make hydrogen gas.

1. Get a bottle, preferrably glass.
2. Get aluminum foil and crunch it up into small balls.
3. Put them down into the bottle.
4. Pour the liquid plumber (I'm not sure if any other drain cleaning solution works, email me if you do and it works) into the bottle, about to the top of where you put the aluminum foil balls.
5. You don't need to put that much, unless you want to

Explosives Made by Nitration

by lpumsun

NITROGLYCERIN-- Nitroglycerin is the ingredient which, from the beginning of the dynamite industry, has given such explosives their characteristics high velocity, as distinguished from low velocity black powder. Nitroglycerin is obtained by the action of nitric acid on glycerin. While sulphuric acid is also used in the process of making nitroglycerin. In carrying out the nitration, the proper amount of mixed acid is introduced...

Explosive Paper

by lpumsun

An excellent absorption explosive can be made from a solution of PETN, acetone and mineral oil. When any non-gloss paper i.e. newspaper, paperback books,corrugated cardboard, etc... is dipped in a explosive solution and when removed and allowed to dry, the paper will retain its original texture and appearance along with a microcrystaline high explosive incorporated into the fiber content of the paper. This produces a disguised...

Explosive (ANFO Type)

by lpumsunpiyush

An explosive composition consisting of an oxidizing agent such as ammonium nitrate and a fuel material that may include a fuel oil and which also comprises a solid fuel such as rubber particles or polystyrene. It has been found that by substituting some or all of the liquid fuel oil with a slower burning solid fuel, the time during which the pressure builds up during detonation is lengthened.

A example of an...

Emulsion-containing Explosive Composition

by lpumsunpiyush

This method relates to explosive compositions comprising a sensitized blend of a water-in-oil emulsion and solid particulate inorganic oxidizing salt, mostly ammonium nitrate, also sodium nitrate will do he work. Use any thing that is good oxidizers of those of my liquid oxidizer will also do the work.
Explosives, which comprise a blend of a water-in-oil emulsion and solid particulate ammonium nitrate,...

Electro-Magnetic Pulse(EMP) Bomb

by wouse101

Well due to even more hype heres how you build a real EMP bomb, this bomb is completly harmless to all people WITHOUT any electronic life support systems e.g. pace maker ( so be sure to tell grandpa to say WELL AWAY FROM IT!):

stuff you will need:

>miles of PURE copper wire (insulated)
>An unfeasibily Large Power supply and capacitor
>A container that does not conduct electricity...

Electrical Time Delay Detonators

by mach8r/lynxtor

You will need:

The bomb
A 9V Battery
A 1.5V light bulb (from a mini Maglite or Radioshack)
A metal rod an inch long about 5mm in diameter
(Analogue) cheap watch or Clock

You will need a clock (an analogue one), and if it doesn't have metallic hands then you will need to put a coating of alfoil or electroplate it or something. Next get a 9V battery and connect it...

Electrical Delays

by PrimoPyro

This file is companion to 2 GIF files. These files are schematics for electronic delay circuits.

To produce delays in the ignition or detonation of pyrotechnic devices, chemical, electrical, and mechanical devices can be used. In the chemical family there are various ways to cause a delay. The foremost is probably sulfuric acid and a chlorate. The chlorate is mixed with a combus- tible substance and a rubber balloon...
