	Explosive material - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Explosives are classified as low or high explosives according to their rates of decomposition: low explosives burn rapidly (or deflagrate), while high explosives undergo detonation.
		The term "detonation" is used to describe an explosive phenomenon whereby the decomposition is propagated by the explosive shockwave traversing the explosive material.
		A chemical explosive is a compound or mixture which, upon the application of heat or shock, decomposes or rearranges with extreme rapidity, yielding much gas and heat.

	J. Roy's Inc. - For All Your Drilling & Blasting Needs
		Where the continuity of a column of explosives in a borehole is broken, either by improper explosive placement, or where some foreign matter has separated the charge in the hole.
		An explosive reaction that consists of the propagation of a shock wave through the explosive accompanied by a chemical reaction that furnishes energy to sustain the shock propagation in a stable manner, with gaseous formation and pressure expansion following shortly thereafter.
		Explosive materials containing substantial amounts of water and high proportions of ammonium nitrate, some of which is in water solution.

	ANFO
		ANFO stands for Ammonium Nitrate / Fuel Oil, and describes a crude but effective explosive that is used by farmers to clear stumps and by the mining industry (because it is easy to pump as slurry) to break up overburden rock and expose ore in open pit mining.
		ANFO was often used by the Provisional IRA in its bombing campaigns and Palestinian extremist groups.
		The bomb used was only remotely based on traditional ANFO bombs though It used a sophisticated triggering sequence and compressed oxygen to achieve a larger detonation than is possible using mundane means.

	[No title]
		In trace detection, the explosive is detected by chemical identification of microscopic residues of the explosive compound.
		The low-vapor-pressure explosives do not produce enough vapor to be detected from their vapor in any but the most exceptional circumstances, and efforts to detect these compounds using trace technology must focus on swipe collection of particulate material.
		Explosives in general tend to be rather sticky, and a person handling a macroscopic piece of the solid material will quickly transfer large amounts of such contamination to his or her hands.

		Yet the new explosive, being liquid, could be poured into crevices in rocks, and was so useful as a blasting agent that its manufacture went on until a large vessel carrying cases of the explosive from Hamburg to Chili blew up at sea.
		Although ANFO is not generally suitable for military use, since it's troublesome to store without drying out, mixtures of AN and TNT known as "amatols" were used in both WWI and WWII as a means of stretching the supply of explosives.
		The melt-cast explosive Octol is a TNT-based explosive (70% HMX:30% TNT or 75 percent HMX, 25 percent TNT).

	California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Section 5237. Definitions.
		“Explosive Materials.” The term includes, but is not limited to, dynamite and other high explosives; slurries, emulsions, and water gels; fl powder and pellet powder; initiating explosives; detonators; blasting caps; safety fuse; squibs; detonating cord; igniter; igniter cord; pyrotechnic devices; blasting agents; and propellants.
		Explosive materials which can be caused to detonate by means of an initiator test detonator when unconfined (for example, dynamite, flash powders, and bulk salutes).
		Intraline distance separation is expected to protect explosive materials in buildings from propagation detonation due to blast effects, but not against the possibility of propagation detonation due to fragments.

		Some of these explosives were difficult to ignite and to initiate, but the trouble was remedied by including some nitroglycerin in their compositions and by firing them with fulminate detonators.
		Binary or two component explosives are blasting explosives that are formed by mixing or combining two commercially manufactured, prepackaged chemical ingredients, consisting of oxidizers, flammable liquids or solids, or similar ingredients which individually are not classified as explosives but which are when mixed or combined, form a detonable mixture.
		Molecular explosives are energetic materials that contain all of the elements for a detonation reaction in the molecules of the explosives.

	Glossary of Blasting Terms
		BINARY EXPLOSIVE – An explosive prepared by mixing 2 non-explosive materials which when combined form a cap-sensitive explosive.
		BRIDGING – Where the continuity of a column of explosives in a borehole is broken, either by improper explosive placement, or where some foreign matter has separated the charge in the hole.
		DETONATION –; An explosive reaction that consists of the propagation of a shock wave through the explosive accompanied by a chemical reaction that furnishes energy to sustain the shock propagation in a stable manner, with gaseous formation and pressure expansion following shortly thereafter.

		If you say a binary explosive with nitromethane as the major ingredient with the remainder as unknown.I categorize this composition as similar to the Picatinny arsenal PLX binary explosive.I suspect that colored liquid(purposely dyed) is a sensitizer possiblly ethylenediamine or other similar amine like materials.That combination can be set off by a blasting cap.
		It is a binary explosive, consisting of a powder and a liquid, but the liquid is not nitromethane.
		Sprengel type explosives are nice also,somehow those old timers or workers who have tried it in commercial blasting complained about its corrosive effect,and sometimes, the disagreeable fumes it emit.They say they would rather bear with nitroglycerin dynamite.Indeed It is easy to make an improvised explosives from this mixtures,and are powerful.

		ANFO is the most commonly used commercial and agricultural explosive as it is cheap and does a good job, this is the explosive farmers use to blow stumps out of the ground and mines also use it on mass.
		ANFO (ammonium nitrate fuel oil) can be manufactured by mixing 17 parts prilled AN with 1 part diesel and left one hour to let it soak in, it is than ready to use.
		This explosive is very sensitive and I've never failed to detonate it using either of the peroxide explosives, to guarantee initiation a matchbox full of the explosive putty should be used however you could probably get by with half this amount.
