A small detonator filled with a more sensitive explosive usually nitro glycerine.
Sure does, its the perfect military explosive:
1- Powerful
2- Hard to detonate accidentally (idiot proof)
Any explosive or ammunition that has not been accepted and type classified for use by the U.S. military
C4 or an atomic bomb - just get some c4 light it on fire and stomp it or get your knife and cut and atom in 2
It is a moldable ( maleable ) plastic explosive it is just like c4, and is made of PETN and RDX. there are a few types of semtex- semtex H, Semtex A, and another type of semtex is used fo blasting. it is moldable like c4 is is plastic like c4.
Nothing, really. C4 is quite powerful, easily made and obtained, and getting it ready for denotation is not an hassle. About the only disadvantage in my book is mostly power. In combat, C4 isn't always efficient and is usually replaced with TNT or ammonium nitrate. But C4 is a useful bomb for collapsing old buildings and other unwanted structures.
One of the most widely-used and least expensive explosives in the U.S. military's arsenal is triacetone-triperoxide or TATP. It is easy and inexpensive to synthesize and is made with acetone and hydrogen peroxide.

c4
An explosive device that uses a plastic explosive (Composition C-4) as the explosive. This is a powerful explosive, not sensitive to impact, that resembles gray/white modeling clay. It is based on a material known as RDX that was developed by the British military.
While we use several, you are probably thinking of Composition C4. It is composed of RDX explosive in a mix of a plastic binder. In Great Britain it is called PE-4. It is a low sensitivity explosive with high energy.
it's an explosive
C4 is made of an explosive called RDX with a coating of plastic over it. Think of it as an explosive in a block of plastic as a container.
C4 is basically the explosive called RDX coated in a plastic binder. The role of the plastic binder is to both coat and protect the RDX, and also make the explosive malleable. Think of C4 as just an explosive in a plastic container.
Composition C4 is a mixture of the explosive RDX and plasticizers. RDX was created by the British military Research Dept, and RDX stands for Research Department Explosives.
Yes. It is a high explosive.
C4
C4
C4 is an explosive compound known as RDX that is coated with a plastic binder. The plastic basically serves as both an protector for the explosive, and as an malleable feature for it. Since the explosive has a coating of plastic over it, to set off C4, a blasting cap or wire is usually inserted into the explosive, and a jolt of electricity sent through it to set the RDX off.
