Plastique Explosive from Aspirin

by lpumsunpiyush

This explosive is a phenol derivative. It is toxic and explosive compounds made from picric acid are poisonous if inhaled, ingested, or handled and absorbed through the skin. The toxicity of this explosive restricts it's use due to the fact that over exposure in most cases causes liver and kidney failure and sometimes death if immediate treatment is not obtained. That is why the picric acid may not be available...

Beside the name of the article is a + - or =. A + means the file is good,...

Oxygen Balance

Oxygen balance is an expression that is used to indicate the degree to which an explosive can be oxidized. If an explosive molecule contains just enough oxygen to convert all of its carbon to carbon dioxide, all of its hydrogen to water, and all of its metal to metal oxide with no excess, the molecule is said to have a zero oxygen balance. The molecule is said to have a positive oxygen balance if it contains more oxygen than is needed and a negative oxygen...

Oxy/acetylene Balloons

by nitrox

If you want a real bang - mix approximately equal mixtures of oxygen and acetylene into a balloon and tie the end off. Either use a petrol or gunpowder fuse, just make sure you have got enough time to get well back! For a bit of excitment, put two or three balloons under a drum, 44 gal (200L- Australia) and a chook or two, add a twenty foot petrol fuse, ignite, stand back, watch drum reach about 200' and see a very startled chook...
