ANARCHY 'N' EXPLOSIVES                            =====> VOLUME 2 <=====    This volume defines a few varieties of misc explosives, charges, and       whatever I had in mind at that time. Anyway, these formulas are not       as precise in measurements for they were given in brief summary.       However, they will work, and if used correctly can be safe and "fun".    FRENCH AMMONAL:-------------------            Type: Low Explosive     Ingredients: 86% Ammonium Nitrate                   6% Stearic Acid                   8% Aluminum Powder     Description: French ammonal is an easily improvised low explosive                  mixture. It is generally less effective than an equal                  weight of TNT. The material is loaded by pressing it into                  a suitable container. Initiation by an Engineer's special                  blasting cap is recommended.        Comments: This material was tested. It is effective.      References: TM 31-201-1, Unconventional Warfare Devices and Techniques,                  para 1401.    TETRYTOL:-------------            Type: High Explosive     Ingredients: 75% Tetryl                  25% TNT     Description: Tetryol is a high explosive bursting charge. It is used as                  a demolition explosive, a bursting charge for mines, and                  in artillery shells. The explosive force of tetrytol is                  approximately the same as that of TNT. It may be initiated                  by a blasting cap. Tetrytol is usually loaded by casting.        Comments: This material was tested. It is effective.      References: TM 9-1900, Ammunition, General, page 55.                  TM 9-1910, Military Explosives, page 188.    IMPROVISED PLASTIC EXPLOSIVE FILLER:----------------------------------------            Type: High Explosive     Ingredients: Finely Powdered Potassium Chlorate Cdata  bstals                  Petroleum Jelly        **MIX THOUROUGHLY**     Description: This plastic explosive filler can be detonated with a                  No. 8 commercial blasting cap or with any military                  blasting cap. The explosive must be stored in a waterproof                  container until ready to use.        Comments: This material was tested. It is effective.      References: TM 31-210, Improvised Munitions, sec I, No. 1.    FLAMABILITY OF GASES:-------------------------            Type: Gas Explosive     Ingredients: Explosive Gas     Description: Under some conditions, common gases act as fuel. When mixed                  with air, they will burn rapidly or even explode. For some                  fuel-air mixtures, the range over which the explosion can                  occur is quite wide while for others the limits are narrow.                  The upper and lower amounts of common fuels that will cause                  an ignitable mixture are shown in the table below. The                  quantity shown is the percentage by volume of air. If the                  fuel-air mixture is too lean or too rich, it will not                  ignite. The amounts shown are therefore called limits of                  inflamability.                                                   Gases (% by volume of air)                  Fuel (Gas)                       Lower Limit    Upper Limit                  -------------------------------  -----------    -----------                  Water Gas Or Blue Gas                7.0             72                  Natural Gas                          4.7             15                  Hydrogen                             4.0             75                  Acetylene                            2.5             81                  Propane                              2.2             10                  Butane                               1.9              9        Comments: These fuels have been tested under labratory conditions.                  They are effective. Ignition depends on method of                  initiation, uniformity of mixture, and physical conditions.
