Räjähdysmateriaali
Räjähdysmateriaali, often translated as explosive material, refers to substances that can undergo a rapid chemical reaction, producing a large volume of gas and heat in a very short period. This rapid expansion of gas generates a shockwave, which is the characteristic explosion phenomenon. Explosive materials are broadly categorized into two main types: high explosives and low explosives.
High explosives, such as TNT, nitroglycerin, and PETN, detonate rapidly, creating a supersonic shockwave that propagates
Low explosives, like black powder and smokeless powder, deflagrate, meaning they burn very quickly at subsonic
The production, storage, transport, and use of explosive materials are heavily regulated in most countries due
