Totse is reference worthy, in a recognized Journal!

[delusional_reality]

TOTSE gets used as a reference, and I'd upload the pdf file if I could figure out how to so on this damned board!

Its Reference 26, if you guys don't believe me and have access. I never thought I'd see the day!

Has this happened before, without my knowledge?

Review of Paste Explosives (PEX)

here's a copy paste job...see right there sandwiched between em!

Details of an improvised RDX PEX have also been reported
on a website [26]. The author describes the mixing
of Comp 4 with mineral oil to create a paste. The formulation
for this composition is presented in Table 6.
This formulation results in a mouldable composition.
The properties of this composition can be changed to produce
a paste-like material by adding 0.2 L of mineral oil
to 0.57 kg of Comp 4. Details of the paste-like formulation
are also presented in Table 6. By introducing more
oil the percentage of RDX is reduced to match the criteria
described earlier for PEX. Secondly, if the RDX was
bimodal, then this would increase its paste-like characteristics.
Also the percentage of fluid is ideal; the only disadvantage
is the density of the oil and its lack of energetic
content, which would affect the overall performance.
Other Systems
Very few other articles appear in the open literature that
relate specifically to the production of energetic pastes.
Some of the reports and literature already discussed describe the use of energetic liquids, in combination with a
gellating agent in order to create a paste [26]. Other
papers describe the use of energetic salts in conjunction
with fuels to create paste-like materials [13–15, 24].
One further example, from a US patent, reports the
use of CL-20 and other nitramines to create pastes as a
replacement for Comp 4 [27]. The patent proposes two
concepts for creating a more mouldable explosive composition
for field work.
Table 5. Examples of liquid explosive compositions for foxhole digging [24].


Table 6. Details of improvised RDX PEX [26].
Mouldable Composition
91% RDX
5.3% dioctylsebacate (DOS)
2.1% polyisobutylene
1.6% oil

Paste-like Composition
69% RDX
4% (DOS)
1.6% PIB
25.4% motor oil

This second one Seems too high in inerts to me!

Table 5.
Liquid----------------------------Slurry---------------- Paste
59.9% nitromethane-------NM or nitroethane 48%-- NM or nitroethane 24%
30% RDX class E* ---------30% RDX class E* ------15% RDX class E*
10% aluminium ------------20% aluminium --------60% RDX class A*
0.5% Cab-O-Sil M-5**----- 2% nitrocellulose -------1% nitrocellulose

*Class E and A are an old classification for RDX particle size from MIL-R-398C specification.

** Cab-O-Sil is a synthetic, amorphous,
untreated fumed silicon dioxide.

It was first published in 2010, and &T was accessed 02.02.09, a month after it was shut down.

Who is the author of the article? Is it the OP? Is it Jeff Hunter?

So they are from the UK.

But you see, that's what I'm talking about. Getting published on &totse meant something. Getting published on Zoklet? Nobody cares. Just some message board run by kids.

Exactly -_-

Would you have joined Zoklet if you had stumbled on it instead of Totse?

I wouldn't have.

what, because your now like 30?

your all just a bunch of gen x'ers!....

If I had stumbled on Zoklet instead of Totse all those years ago I wouldn't have joined it.

lol...

Looking at it objectively, Totse BB had perhaps two dozen active, knowledgeable, and contributing members in its prime.

In the 2+ years Zoklet has been around, this section has been lucky to get a couple bursts of random activity per month, mostly from morons and trolls who happen to come across a thread in the hot topics list.

No rose tinted glasses here. Totse was orders of magnitude more awesome.

[warweed]

Yup hence why I don't waste time or brain cells over here thou still keep in contact with a few people intact just got back in touch with rat_bastard

[inb4lock]

just got back in touch with rat_bastard

What's he doing these days? He must be like 25 by now, as I remember him being 16-17 back in the KrimzonPyro days.

Hm, I wonder what EP is up to as well...

Wow. That very well might beat the Australian anti-terrorism poster. . .

I think we should write a collective letter to Jeff Hunter and ask Rob Szarka to pass it to him.

I was still viewing some of totse's pages in mid 2009, so it is entirely possible.

lol...

Your picture amuses me.
