Now that
the formalities are over with let’s get into the good stuff, so
first off let’s actually find
out what the definition of explosives is. A
explosive is a substance or device capable of
producing a volume of rapidly
expanding gas that exerts sudden pressure on it’s surroundings.
Basically there
are two types of explosives.
(1) Detonating or High
Explosives
(2) Deflagrating or Low Explosives
The difference here is that
detonating explosives like TNT and Dynamite are ch
aracterized by rapid decomposition and high
pressure, wheras deflagrating
explosives lik black powder merely burn rapidly and create low
pressures.
However as we all know black powder under certain conditions will detonate for
ex
ample if we pack it into a enclosed area such as a pipe or Co2 cannister.
Now the
detonating explosives are divided into two types primary and secondary. P
rimary explosives
detonate by ignition i.e. a flame, spark, impact, or other mean
s of heat. Secondary
explosives require a detonator and occassionally a secondar
y booster. Now those are the
basics, which should be remembered and marked, as t
hose terms will come back to haunt you.

Gunpowder or Blackpowder as we will call it was most likely invented by the C
hinese around
the 10th century. Blackpowder burns best when it is fine,
and the fineness is measured as F,
2F, etc.. The finest though is 7F and
the least finest is F. Now I am about to teach you how
to make an excellent
quality gunpowder. This is just short of factory 7FA po, which is the
best.
Materials Needed
—————-
Shaker or Drink Mixer
Morter and Pestle
Sulphur
Potassium Nitrate
Charcoal (preferably Matchlite, but
any old charcoal will do)
Graphite
Ratios
——
75% Potassium
Nitrate
15% Charcoal
10% Sulphur
.5% Graphite (Half a pencil worth for glazing
only)
Note : These ratios vary as more suplhur will slow down the burning process,
and find out which
ratios work best for you.
(1) Grind the Charcoal and Sulphur together into a very fine
dust, and also
note that this cannot and will not explode, and also that it is sometimes
best to put the charcoal brickets in a plastic bag, and smash them with
a brick or other heavy
object.
(2) Next grind the Salt Peter or Potassium Nitrate by *ITSELF* and not with
consistancy as the
first powder for optimum results.
(3) Now pour the Sulphur and Charcoal mixture in. Now
pour the Salt Peter in.
Now add in a small amount of graphite that has been crushed finely.
Now
put all this into your shaker, and shake vigorously for about 15 to 30
minutes.
(Note the longer it is shaked the better quality) Now adding in
the graphite is a process is
called glazing, and this done is because the
graphite forms a small film over the gunpowder
and this also rounds out the
corners of the powder. Also the newly glazed gunpowder is more
moisture
resistant, and it flows or is poured more easily as it doesn’t stick as
much.
Ignition
——–
Black powder is relatively insensitive to
shock and friction, and needs a
flame or heat to be ignited. This can be ignited with a
lighter, a red hot
iron, a flame of any sort, or a fuse. The touch iron is on of my favorites
as it
keeps a distace between you and the powder.

Inventor
is most likely unknown, as it most likely blew him to bits.
Nevertheless Ascanio Sobrero is
credited for it’s finding in 1846. Alfred
Nobel worked extensively with it, and sold his
american holdings in Nitro
for $20,000 in 1885. Obviously he was screwed good and hard by
american
know how.
How the Explosion Occurs
————————
Ch2Ono2
3/2 N2 + 3 Co2
Chono2 -=-=-=-=-=-> +
ignition 5/2 H20+ 1/4 02
This is how nitro explodes, and you chemistry majors will notice that the
bi-products are Nitrogen, Water, and Carbon Dioxide.
Materials
———
The materials are not listed on this one as it is quite dangerous, and I want
everyone
to read through it a few times before attempting anything.
Procedure
———
Mix 100 parts fuming nitric acid (note: this should have a specific
gravity of 50
degrees Baume for best results) with 200 parts Sulphuric Acid.
The Nitric acid should be
poured into the sulphuric acid, and not the other way a
round as it will splatter. This will
be hot, so let it cool down, and when its c
ool add 38 parts glycerine as SLOWLY as possible.
The glycerine should be allowe
d to trickle down the sides of the container, and don’t drip it
straight into the
container.(note: if glycerin is added too fast then the stuff will ignite,
and y
ou will be eligible for the wheelchair olympics) Next stir with a *GLASS* rod for
15 seconds so very carefully. Now pour it into 20 times it’s *VOLUME* of water.
It will then
visibly precipitate immediatly. Now there will be twice as much N
itro as you used glycerin,
and it’s easy to separate. Next mix it with baking sod
a immidiatly after it’s separated to
keep it from going off spontaneously.
Special Notes – The parts are by weight and the
Baume scale of specific
gravity, which can be found in most chemistry books. You can get
fuming
Nitric and Sulphuric acids at chemical supply warehouses or fertilizer stores.
Don’t make more than 100 grams at a time ever, and always wear some sort of
body and eye
protection. Glycerin can be obtained at any pharmacy or medical
supply co. Also after it is
washed with the baking soda it is not that stable, a
nd a abrupt bump or sharp movement can
take off your hands. Also note that nitro
glycerin is much safer to handle frozen, and it
freezes at 52 degrees farenheit o
r 11 degrees celcius. Therefore it can easily be frozen in
ice.
Ignition
——–
Well this one is easy drop it or throw
something at it. Also please
remember that a loud fart could set this stuff off so please
please be
careful.

This was
invented by Alfred Nobel in 1867. The first and easiest form
to make is dynamite no.1, which
is 75% nitroglycerin and 25% guhr. Guhr is
from kieselguhr a silicous porous earth. This was
used as it absorbed large
quantities of nitroglycerin. It is no longer used as the guhr draws
some
power from the explosion. Now the term "dope" is applied to the inert
ingridients of dynamite, so 30% straight dynamite would be 70% dope. Get it?
A better dope for
dynamite is wood pulp and sodium nitrate as an oxidizer.
That in a 40% straight dynamite ratio
works excellently as an explosive.
Materials
———
Nitrolglycerin
Wood Pulp
Procedure
———
Is this simpler
than you thought or what? Well just mix in 60 percent
wood pulp with 40% Nitroglycerin, and
your done. This mixture should be
done with care, and just let the wood pulp absorb the
nitroglycerin.
Note: There are many variations to this formula as cotton would work
in
place of wood pulp etc… Almost anything that will absorb the
nitro will work, and
it is best to experiment with.
Industrial Dynamite No. 2
————————-
68% Ammonium Nitrate
20% Sodium Chloride
10%
TNT
2% Powdered Bark
This is the scale to follow for the making of a more modern
dynamite, and this is
the ratio commonly used in industry. This is because around 1885 it
was
found safer to use ammonium nitrate in place of nitro for obvious reasons.
This
formula can be made in dry powdered form as the gelatin synthesis pretty
much requires a lab.
If anyone has access to a lab leave me mail and I will
help you with any problems you might
have. Also note that TNT is
trinitrotoluene, and the above ratios for this formula are by
weight not
looks, but like gunpowder experiment and variate. Also when making this
formula follow the same procedures as you did with the gunpowder except for
the graphite.

TNT is
the most widespread weapon used in shells grenades and a horde
of mixtures. It is commonly
mixed with RDX for explosive devices such as
the torpedo, cyclotol used for shattering with a
explosive power of
4,000,000 pounds per a square inch, and many other uses. I however have
is kept from the
public for obvious reasons along with the C family i.e.
C-1, C-3, C-4, etc… with C-4 being
the most popular. TNT is great it can
be melted safely and poured into a future container for
later use. Well
on with the procedure. Also note the melting point of TNT is 82 degrees
farenheit.
Materials
———
Once again I would much rather have
you read through it, but not because it
is dangerous, because it is very very very difficult
to make, and out of
the twenty seven times I have made it, it only worked twelve times.
Also this will be done step by step as it is much more difficult than
nitro or dynamite.
Procedure
———
(1) Take two beakers, and in beaker A prepare a
solution of 76% sulfuric acid,
23% nitric acid, and 1% water. In beaker B prepare a solution
of 57%
nitric acid and 43% sulfuric acid.
(2) Ten grams of beaker A are poured
into beaker C and placed in a
ice bath.
(3) Add ten grams of toluene to beaker C,
and stir for several minutes.
(4) Remove beaker C from the ice bath and gently heat
until it reaches
50 degrees Celcius, and stir it constantly while it is heated.
(5) Fifty additional grams of solution from beaker A are added to beaker C
and the temperature
is allowed to rise to 55 degrees celcius. Then it is
held at 55 degrees celcius for ten
minutes. Note an oily liquid will
begin to form on top of the acid solution.
(6)
After 10 minutes the acid solution is returned to the ice bath, and
cooled to 45 degrees
celcius when reaching this temp. the oily liquid
will sink to the bottom and collect. Then use
a syringe and draw off
the remaining acid solution.
(7) Fifty more grams of
beaker A are added to the oily liquid while the
temp. is slowly being raised to 83 degrees
celcius. After this temp.
is reached it is kept there at 83 degrees celcius for 30 minutes.
(8) Now the solution is allowed to cool to 60 degrees celcius, and is kept at
60
degrees for 30 minutes.
(9) Now drain off the acid once again saving only the oily
liquid.
(10) Next 30 grams of sulfuric acid are added, while the oily liquid is
heated to 80 degrees celcius.
(11) Now when it reaches 80 degrees add 30 grams of
beaker B, and the temp.
is raised from 80 degrees to 104 degrees, and it is held at 104
degrees for 3 hours.
(12) After the 3 hours, the solution is lowered to 100 degrees and
is held
there for 30 minutes.
(13) When this time is up the oil is removed from
the acid and washed with
boiling water.
(14) After washing it with boiling water
start to stir it consistantly, and
watch the TNT begin to solidify
(15) When it
starts to solidify cold water is add to the beaker so that
the tnt will form into pellets.
(16) Now your done after a quite long and trying expierience!
Notes: on the
above the weights and temperatures and times are specific, so
don’t blow them off or it wont
work. Also the acid solutions here and
with the nitroglycerin can dissolve flesh in seconds so
be careful for
gods sake! Also the TNT you have can be melted into a container for
future use against a well deserving enemy. Violent mixture next with
TNT. See it can already
be used to make a dynamite, but we want
something with a little more kick than plain TNT or
dynamite.
Amatol
——
This is a mixture of ammonium nitrate and
TNT it is used by the
government, and they’re better killers than me so it must be good.
Amatol
can be made very easily it can be melted into the TNT, and then poured into
a
container.
Ratios
——
80% Ammonium Nitrate
20% TNT
or
50% Ammonium Nitrate
50% TNT
The military value of this
mixture was used mainly in WWI (world war I for
the morons) it was used in artilley shells and
aerial bombs. This
composition is pretty much good for any sort of devastating projectile
per
say the neighbors house or car. Ohh well this looks like the end of
The Book of
Destruction Part I, so take it easy and don’t blow yourself up,
so you can see The Book of
Destruction Part II (Intermidiate).
