of the author that it be used.
OK. Now that that's out of the way, here's a brief into to what we
will be making.
Picric Acid is usually used as a booster explosive combined
with DDNP, HMDT, and TACC. All it does is create a large
enough explosion to set off the main charges.
Picric acid is a stable explosive, and will usually not go
off unless something with the force of a blasting cap ignites it.
You are warned now that you should not handle picric acid, as
it will burn the skin and possibly right through you.
The following is a list of materials that you will need in order
to make it.
Materials :
Asprin Tablets
95% Pure alcohol
Concentrated sulfuric acid
Potassium nitrate
Water
Paper towels
Canning Jar - 1 pint
Glass rod
Glass containers
Glass dish
Cup
Teaspoon
Tablespoon
Pan
Heat Source
Tape
Now how to make it!!!
Crush 20 tablets into a glass container. Add one teaspoon of water
and work it into a paste. Next, add approximately 1/2 to 1/3 of
a cup of alcohol to the mixture, and keep stirring while pouring.
Now, filter the solution through that paper towel into another
glass container. Destroy the other shit left on the paper towel.
Pour the solution into the glass dish. Evaporate the alcohol and
water by placing the dish into a pan of bot water. The remains
will be white powder. Mind you that this water should not be
boiling; just hot.(It should not burn your hands).
Once that is done, you are halfway done. Now. Pour 1/3 cups of
the sulfuric acid into a canning jar. Add the white powder
to the acid. Heat that jar in a pan of simmering water for 15
minutes, then remove. The solution will turn a yellow-orange color.
Add 3 LEVEL teaspoons of potassium nitrate in 3 portions to the
solution, and stir vigorusly. It wll change different colors, then
back to yellow. Allow the solution to cool to room temp while
stirring occasionly.
Now, SLOWLY pour the solution into 1 + 1/4 cups of cold water
and allow to cool. Filter that solution through another paper
towel into the glass container. Light yellow particles will
collect on the paper. Wash those particles with 2 tablespoons
of water. Discard the liquid waste in the conatiner. Place the
remaining particles in a ceramic dish and set in a hot water bath
for 2 hours.
Finally!
Finally! You have just completed a VERY powerful booster explosive
that is to be used in conjuction with HMDT, DDNP, or TACC. This
acid coupled with the above produces a fucking huge blast, so
don't be even fucking NEAR the explosive when it goes off!
The above can be detonated very simply. Just use a blasting cap.
