he he.
the cornflakes are not needed. they just help the power go way down. the petrolium jelly should not be used either, it takes the power away.
just use the KNO3+S+Charcoal+sugar the sugar might give it more power, I'am not sure.
it is not very sensitive. it can handle somewhat high tempuratures. all it is is black powder.a much better explosive that actually detonates instead of deflagerating. is KCLO3 + petrolium jelly.
it is not a powerful explosive but it works.
do 9 parts KCLO3 and 1 part petrolium jelly.

vaseline and chlorate don't explode.
they deflagrate.
explode implies that the shockwave of another explosion (an initiator/primer) initiates the explosive from its shockwave.
pipe bombs explode , but they don't contain explosive.
