Explosive and Propellant Additives offered by IPI:

POLYISOBUTYLENE
Specification MIL-P-13298A (MU). Used as a binder in explosive compositions. The binder makes the explosive less shock sensitive so it can withstand higher temperatures and it can be jostled without reacting. With the binder, the explosive is easier to handle and easier to mold. In the C-4 Explosive, RDX is combined with polyisobutylene as the plastic binder.

DMDNB (2, 3-DIMETHYL-2, 3-DINITROBUTANE)
Marking agents are currently required by law to be used in plastic explosives. DMDNB is a high vapor pressure compound that when added to a plastic explosive will significantly increase the detection probability of that explosive.

DI(2-ETHYL-HEXYL) SEBACATE
Specification MIL-D-10692. Used as a plasticizer in explosive compositions. The plasticizer makes the explosive material malleable.

TRIPHENYL BISMUTH
Specifications WS-20883; MIL-T-82825; MIL-T-70681. Bonding and accelarating agent of plastic bonded explosives and of composite propellants.

DI-(2-ETHYLHEXYL) ADIPATE, TECHNICAL
Specification DOD-D-23443B. Used as a plasticizer in plastic bonded explosives.

CALCIUM SILICATE
Specification MIL-C-51077 (Ord.) Used in explosive compositions containing Trinitrotoluene (TNT) (to prevent exudation of TNT).
