Military explosives
Military explosives are specialized chemical compounds designed to produce a rapid release of energy, creating a powerful blast or destructive force. They are used in military applications like demolition, weaponry, and munitions. These explosives typically consist of a fuel and an oxidizer that quickly react when initiated, causing a shockwave that can demolish structures or deliver explosive force over a distance. They are engineered for stability and safety during handling but are highly sensitive to sparks, impact, or heat. Common types include TNT, C-4, and RDX, each tailored for specific military needs based on their explosive characteristics and stability.
