'MILK BOOSTER:
This is another explosive booster which is less known.
I don't know of which substance actually it is, but I think it's casein nitrate.
Here, I don't know the exact VoD, but it is written that 30 parts of it as a booster, will detonate pure ammonium nitrate.Use fresh milk. Do not use powdered, dry, or instant milk.
PREPARATION:
Chemicals:
milk
nitric
acid (70 %)
sulfuric
acid (96%)
vinegar (common household)
destilled water
baking soda
17
Materials:
tablespoon
3 glass beakers
ice bath
1 filter paper (acid resistant is optimal)
MANUFACTURE:
1. Place 400 ml milk in a glass beaker.
Add 2 tbs. of vinegar (5-6 % acid).
Let sit overnight.
2. In the next morning remove the precipitate sludge with your spoon.
Dry this white stuff in the sun until a white substance remains.
Powder the substance.
Yield: about 5-6 grams
3. In a 2nd beaker fill in 40 ml of 70 % (d= 1.42) nitric acid.
Place the beaker in an ice bath until it is cooled down to 10°C. Then add 60 ml of the
sulfuric acid.
4. Now, carefully stir in the 5-6 grams of (0.5 grams at one time) the "milkpowder"
while the temperature is kept below 20° C.
If the temp. rises close to the 20° mark, stop the addition until it begins to fall.
This step will take about 15 to 20 minutes.
5. After all "milkpowder" is stirred in, you should have a jelly or a quolled substance.
Let sit for 30 minutes.
6. Carefully pour the
acid and the nitrated stuff through an
acid resistant filter paper.
7. Neutralize the
acid with common baking soda water.
8. wash the nitrated "milkpowder" with at least 5 tbs. of destilled water, and at last
with a 5%- baking soda/water solution.
9. The white primary explosive is stored in its moist form.'
