Many chlorate mixtures, particularly those which contain sulfur, sulfides, and picric acid, are extremely sensitive to blows and to friction. In the Street explosives, later called Cheddites because they were manufactured at Chedde in France, the chlorate is phlegmatized by means of castor oil, a substance which appears to have remarkable powers in this respect. The French Commission des Substances Explosives in 1897 commenced its first investigation of these explosives by a study of those which are listed below, and concluded 35 that their sensitivity to shock is...
