The oxygen in the air that the fuel is dispersed through. An FAE does not work underwater.
An explosive trigger initiates a rapid chemical reaction leading to an explosion, while a non-explosive trigger initiates a process or event without causing an explosion. The choice of trigger depends on the intended outcome and safety considerations for the specific application.
The balanced equation for the explosive decomposition of dynamite is: C3H6N6O6 --> 3CO2 + 3H2O + 1.5N2 + 1.5C This equation represents the combustion reaction of TNT (trinitrotoluene), which is the main explosive component of dynamite.
The component of an IED that creates an electrical charge is typically a battery or power source. This electrical charge is used to initiate the explosive material or trigger the detonation mechanism of the IED.
Liquid oxygen (LOX) is commonly used as a liquid oxidizer in rocket engines due to its high oxidizing potential and high density. Hydrogen peroxide is another liquid oxidizer used in some rocket engines and propulsion systems. Nitric acid is also used as a liquid oxidizer in certain applications.
Yes, the military does use C-4 as an explosive material due to its stability and effectiveness in demolition and combat operations. It is commonly used for breaching obstacles, destroying structures, and as a component in explosives for military applications.
Ammonium nitrate is not explosive, it is an effective oxidizer. Mix it with a fuel and you have explosive.
It's a class 4 oxidizer, meaning it can kick start anything that can burn into burning. But by itself it isn't very dangerous (since there is nothing for it to help burn). Mixing ammonium perchlorate with some metal powders can create an explosive.
No. Sulfur is flammable but not explosive.

It is a jelly type explosive that can be pumped into holes in rock for blasting. It is an emulsion (where two things that don't usually mix are mixed- like oil and water) It consists of an oxidizer and a fuel, mixed into a water base. It is a safe and economical explosive for mining and mass excavations in construction. May also be called a "water gel".
TNT is an explosive compound, and can be a component of an I.E.D., but is not one in and of itself, anymore than any other explosive by itself is an I.E.D.The name I.E.D. pretty much defines what it is: it's a device - that is, some assembly of parts - which is manufactured in an ad-hoc, improvised, and non-formally manufactured form, which contains some explosive.Most common I.E.D. use the explosive filler from scavenged artillery shells (which is typically closer to RDX, the primary component of plastic explosive) as their explosive component. Custom-made gunpowder is also common, though less effective and harder to handle. Plastic explosive itself bought on the black market is also becoming more common in I.E.D.s(as of 2010 in Iraq and Afghanistan)
UVA acts primarly as the oxidizer
Oxidizer - album - was created in 2004.
An oxidiser, or an oxidising agent. Spelled with a 'z' if you're American.
Nitric acid, sulfuric acid, and hydrochloric acid are commonly used in the production of explosives. Nitric acid is often used as an oxidizer, while sulfuric acid can serve as a catalyst in certain explosive reactions. Hydrochloric acid may be used in the preparation of certain explosive substances.
An explosive trigger initiates a rapid chemical reaction leading to an explosion, while a non-explosive trigger initiates a process or event without causing an explosion. The choice of trigger depends on the intended outcome and safety considerations for the specific application.
The trade name of hydrogen peroxide used as an explosive is "High Test Peroxide" (HTP). It is a high concentration form of hydrogen peroxide that is utilized in rocket propulsion systems and as a component in some improvised explosive devices.
