Hexogen (RDX) is a white crystalline powder. Among the manufactures in the world, hexogen has a different production process. Our process is according to Bachman method (Type II).

Phlegmatized and pressed RDX is used as highly brisance material for the manufacture of boosters and hollow charges. Non phlegmatized RDX in combination with TNT is also used as parable mixture for hollow charges and brisant explosive charges, (composition B), mixture of cyclonite and Aluminium powder are used as torpedo charges (hexotonal, torpex).

Sometime this material could be used as an additive in manufacture of smokeless powders in manufacturing explosive charges which are required to have a certain mechanical strength or rubber elastic toughness. Cyclonite is incorporated with curable plastic materials such as polyurethanes, polybutadiene or polysulfide and is poured into molds (plastic explosive).
