Hey. I'm also posting this in /tg and /sci.
I'm working on a crafting system for a tabletop rpg akin to the Witcher. I'd like to keep as scientifically accurate as possible but when it came time to start figuring out explosives I hit a roadblock.
I was wondering if anyone could explain explosives like frag grenades, c4, explosive gels (like batman's in the arkham games) in a simple way for someone who took highschool science about a half a decade ago.
The key things I'm looking to are:
chemical/catalyst + catalyst/chemical = how much explosive force
Sorry for my lack of understanding, but that's why I'm here. To learn.

good luck bruh, nobody here knows shit about explosives
nobody here knows shit about anything other than firearms
most people here don't even know shit about those

Nice try Mr.BATFE.
Gun powder + Elven Dust = 12.468tons of TNT equivalent force.

Thumbs Up
Nope, no information on how to make explosives here, Mr. ATF- I mean anon. We are a simple image board that enjoys our legal firearms and nothing else.

>explain explosives
Okay
>in a simple way
Nah.
The best way to do it would be to class chemicals together in groups. One group would be fuel, another oxidizers, another catalysts, and the last stabilizers.
In the case of black powder, the fuel would be finely ground charcoal. The oxidizer would be saltpeter (potassium nitrate). The (optional, but recommended) stabilizer would be sulfur. It doesn't really need a stabilizer because it's so basic and relatively stable on its own.
This is grossly simplified, but I imagine it would work okay.
There is no way to learn how to make explosives on the internet. Especially not in US Army TM 31-210. There is also no torrent called the Do/k/ument, a large torrent with a host of weapons info, hosted at a website called murdercube along with various other individual files.
Nope. Nothing to see.

Thanks. Nice simple item + item + item. Perfect for my game.
Again, thank you sir/madam/tentacle monster/alien human hybrid/etc.

Thanks for letting me know those don't exist. I won't spend hours going over everything that isn't there and I'm grateful for the help.

Also if worse comes to worse, liquid oxygen and sugar in a coated iron pipe with something to provide a spark.
But liquid oxygen is scary as fuck to deal with.
