Green explosive is a friend of the Earth
Los Alamos, New Mexico - A new type of explosive may make blowing things up a little more environmentally friendly, according to a new study.
US researchers say they have developed "green" chemicals that could replace the lead-based primary explosives that are used to detonate everything from blasting caps to ballistic missiles. They also claim their process may make the manufacturing of such energetic compounds safer.
