  Plastic explosive - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Plastic explosive (or plastique) is a specialised form of explosive material.
Plastic explosives are especially suited for explosive demolition as they can be easily formed into the best shapes for cutting structural members, and have a high enough velocity of detonation and density for metal cutting work.
It is also the explosive used in HESH anti-tank shells.

 Plastique (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Plastique (real name Bette Sans Souci) is a DC Comics character who has evolved over the decades from supervillain to superhero, one of a handful of DC characters depicted as Canadian in origin.
Plastique then became engaged to Captain Atom, although the engagement was effectively broken in the wake of events of Armageddon: 2001.
Despite her efforts in joining her teams on the transporter, Plastique was caught in an explosion of her own device when Deadshot detonated it from a distance so that they could get away with the Annihilator.

 Bomb
A bomb is an explosive device which, although not containing more energy than ordinary fuel, except in the case of a nuclear weapon, generates and releases its energy very rapidly, as a violent, destructive shock wave.
These are first and foremost weapons; the term "bomb" is not usually applied to explosive devices used for civilian purposes, such as construction or mining, although the people using the devices may or may not sometimes refer to them as bombs.
A bomb may also be positioned in advance and concealed, for example in a garbage container, car or truck as a car bomb, or by the roadside in a roadside bomb, in a building as a booby trap, or in lugguage in and a vehicle.

There is a table below this text with the different explosives, their damage per ounce applied to a target, the blast radius per ounce, whether the explosive type can be tamped, and the stability of the explosive.
Difficulty modifiers are based on the form the explosive is to be in such as solid, liquid, or gas.
If an explosion occurs during the creation of the explosive then the damage of the explosion will be equal to 1/2 of the intended kill value of one ounce of the explosive.

As in other explosive compositions the glass microballons (microspheres) are used to reduce the density of the explosive thus sensitizing it to detonation from a #6 blasting cap.
This explosive is plastic from -65 degrees F. to 170 degrees F. It is sensitive to a #6 blasting cap.

 Explosives Act
"explosive" means any thing that is made, manufactured or used to produce an explosion or a detonation or pyrotechnic effect, and includes any thing prescribed to be an explosive by the regulations, but does not include gases, organic peroxides or any thing prescribed not to be an explosive by the regulations;
14.4 (1) An explosive that is seized and detained under section 14.1 shall not be detained after the expiration of ninety days after the day of seizure unless, before that expiration, the explosive is forfeited pursuant to section 14.6 or 26 or proceedings are instituted in relation to the explosive.

 NITRO-GELATIN EXPLOSIVE (EDUCATIONAL)
It is a nitroglycerin based explosive and therefore the manufacturer would need to be familiar with the handling of nitroglycerin and know the safety procedures associated with it's handling.
This explosive would need to be made up prior to it's use to ensure cap reliability and a high detonation rate.
It should be used immediately.If this is impossible the explosive can be stored with a relative degree of safety if the temperature is kept in the 0-10 degree C range.

This explosive is superior to nitro-gelatin in that it is easier to collidon the IMR smokeless powder into the explosive and that the 50/50 ether ethyl alcohol can be done away with.
In this explosive as in nitro-gelatine the addition of 1% sodium carbonate is a good idea to reduce the chance of recidual acid being present in the final explos-ive.
Originally this explosive was derived from coal tar but thanx to modern chemistry you can make this explosive easily in approximately three hours from acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin purified).

 Plastic explosives (Gerald L. Hurst; Arno Hahma; Bruce Hamilton)
PETN and RDX are so similar in their explosive properties that it would be foolish to mix the two and thereby double the risk of some chemical incompatibility unique to one or the other.
Properly formulated plastic explosives such as C-4 contain as high a percentage of RDX as can be crammed in without losing the limited coherency of the material, which is a stiff, claylike mass.
Despite the high explosives content of C-4, it is difficult to initiate the material with a #6 blasting cap and failures also sometimes occur with commercial #8 caps when they are not properly positioned in the charge.

 Explosives
An unskilled attempt that results in failure becomes a Fumble; a further roll of 8-10 means the explosive goes off prematurely, as in "in your face" (a further Fumble roll of 8-10 means the same thing for a character with Demolitions skill).
A rolled score 10 points over the Difficulty means explosive does 3 times the rolled damage to the structure; a success means the explosive does 2 times the rolled damage to the structure.
Failure means the explosive does normal rolled damage, and a Fumble means the explosive does 1/3 the rolled damage.
