1 Gun Cotton
Raw cotton treated with a mixture of nitric acid and sulphuric acid produces this powerful explosive. When a light is applied it simply bums very rapidly. It only explodes with the aid of an initial explosion as provided by a detonator. The cotton is first cleansed, combed and dried, and after treatment is finally washed, pulped and pressed. -
