About how much ammonium nitrate is in one cold pack? (the sport injury ones) Is this pure ammonium nitrate? do they sell anyother cold packs with other shit in them? i don't want to buy 10 packs and find out its not ammonium nitrate. Just a quick word of advice, be very careful when buying explosive materials. Today i was ringing around to find prices on ammonium nitrate. I had a good story (peach trees needed nitrated soil) and all when well until i asked if they sold it in small bags then 50kgs. The man's tone changed and told me that it was illigal to buy under 50kgs at a time, he then asked my name and if i wanted to him to order some. I could tell that something was up so i made my excuses and promptly hung up.

Ho ju, when you used the ammonium nitrate from the cold packs did you wash it before using? If so did you use the cold water or the denture alchol method? Did it work? |

The AN found in instant cold packs is pure and in the prilled form. You get about 1 - 1 1/2 cups. I have never used it for explosives, but I have made Lowry's AN smoke bomb without washing it and it worked great. ------------------ |

Just make a solution of AN and water and soak/coat some newspaper with it. Let dry, and light. |

alright now for the technical questions: -what is the ratio of AN to H2O -how much newspaper do i use for the given ratio -how long to i soak the paper for?

Well make it a well saturated solution, Use it untill its all gone, You can paint it on the paper with a paint brush just make sure the paper is wet. Then put it on a cloths line if it is summer by you if not put it infront of a fan simple. |
