Sensitivity of Granular RDX

Explosives such as PETN, RDX, HMX cannot be used as such for pressing because of their sensitivity and granular nature. The sensitivity is reduced considerably to safer limits by coating them with waxes or polymers. This process is called phlegmatizahon. In some cases, zinc stearate, barium stearate, graphite etc. [Pg.169]
