How are explosive classified?

Explosives are classified by their sensitivity, energy output, and chemical composition. They can be grouped into categories such as high explosives (e.g., TNT, C4), low explosives (e.g., black powder, fireworks), and blasting agents (e.g., ANFO). These categories are further divided based on their intended use and potential hazards.


What type of explosive is widely used by the military and is one of the least sensitive explosives.?

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.


What is the C4 in MW3?

How does C4 work?

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.


How many joules does c4 produce?

A gram of C4 explosive produces approximately 6,700 joules of energy when detonated.


What is in c4?

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.


When was c4 invented?

C4 is a type of plastic explosive. It was first invented by Alfred Nobel in 1875 and was called gelignite.


What do C4 do?

C4 is an plastic explosive commonly used to demolish (blow up) old buildings and other unwanted structures. It's not commonly used or at all used in combat because it is a somewhat unwieldy explosive.
