C4 is made up of explosives, plastic binder, plasticizer and usually marker or odorizing taggant chemicals such as 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-dinitrobutane (DMDNB) to help detect the explosive and identify its source.

The explosive in C4 is RDX (cyclonite or cyclotrimethylene trinitramine), which makes up around 91% of C4 by mass. The plasticizer is diethylhexyl (5.3%)

or dioctyl sebacate and the binder is usually polyisobutylene (2.1%). Another plasticizer used is dioctyl adipate (DOA). A small amount of SAE 10 non-detergent motor oil (1.6%) is also added.

C4 is manufactured by combining the noted ingredients with binder dissolved in a solvent. The solvent is then evaporated and the mixture dried and filtered. The final material is an off-white solid with a texture similar to modelling clay.

How do you make a bomb in powder game?

you make a circle out of c-4, that white stuff, and then you make a long line made out of c4 coming out of the c4 circle dat you just made. put two small lines of clone inside the c4 circle, then wait five seconds. if you want to, you can make the c4 line go to the ground and put a player on, put a little bit of fire on the players head, and press down to light the c4. or just after five seconds you can light it yourself with fire. ka-boom and you can add a little gas, oil, fireworks, etc. that are flamible.Use the bomb element, or use magma and nitro.
