A standard detonating fuse uses a sensitive primary explosive like Mercury fulminate, picric acid, or some such to initiate the main charge or sometimes a booster charge which will then set off the main charge. The main charge is usually an insensitive high explosive like TNT or PTEN. These fuses are initiated by either an electric current or a fuse. NONEL fuses also called Shock Tube detonators utilize a multilayered small diameter tube coated on the innermost wall with a reactive explosive compound. When initiated the explosive propagates a low energy signal down the length of the tube to the booster or explosive. NONEL fuses are less prone to accidental detonation unlike standard fuses which can sometimes be detonated by static electricity, and since the detonation is kept within the tube they are less dangerous if they do go off accidentally

What is a nonel and how it is different than detonating fuse?
Detonating fuses involve the use of electricity for initiating explosions. Nonel propogates a low energy signal along a chemical coating on the inside of a plastic tube to the main charge. Please see the link.
Is plywood a good materials for detonating mortars with inverted fuse type?
not unless it is a good thickness like 3/4 or 5/8
What hazard division is mass detonating?
1.1
How do you detonate det cord?
Detonating cord, or det cord, is typically detonated using a blasting cap or a fuse. The blasting cap is attached to the end of the det cord, and when triggered, it creates a shock wave that travels along the cord, igniting it. The cord then detonates at a specific velocity, allowing for precise timing in demolition or blasting operations. Safety measures must be strictly followed when handling and detonating explosive materials.
What were grenades used for?

How do you test that a nonel shocktube has been initiated?
To test if a nonel shock tube has been initiated, you can look for visual indicators such as a bright flash or flame at the end of the tube, which signifies detonation. Additionally, you can listen for the sound of the initiation, typically a sharp crack or pop. It's important to conduct this test in a safe environment and at a distance to ensure safety. Always follow proper safety protocols and guidelines when working with explosive materials.
