The "Final 2023 Critical Materials List" was determined by the United States Department of Energy (DOE), [5] with the Undersecretary for Science and Innovation involvement. . This list incorporates materials deemed critical for energy applications and minerals from the 2022 final list designated by the Department of the Interior through the United States Geological Survey (USG
This is a list of prices of chemical elements. Listed here are mainly average market prices for bulk trade of commodities. Data on elements' abundance in Earth's crust is added for comparison. As of 2020, the most expensive non-synthetic element by both mass and volume is rhodium.
Octaazacubane potential explosive: 22.9 [4] Hydrogen + Oxygen: 13.4 [5] Gasoline + Oxygen –> Derived from Gasoline: 13.3 [citation needed] Dinitroacetylene explosive - computed [citation needed] 9.8: Octanitrocubane explosive: 8.5 [6] 16.9 [7] Tetranitrotetrahedrane explosive - computed [citation needed] 8.3: Heptanitrocubane explosive ...
It is a key, directly measurable indicator of explosive performance, but depends on density which must always be specified, and may be too low if the test charge diameter is not large enough. Especially for little studied explosives there may be divergent published values due to charge diameter issues.
It was also used for the explosive lenses in the first implosion-type nuclear weapons developed by the United States. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The standard proportions of ingredients (by weight) are 59.5% RDX ( detonation velocity of 8,750 m/s) and 39.5% TNT (detonation velocity of 6,900 m/s), phlegmatized with 1% paraffin wax .

In 2024, Ukraine started production of an improved F-1 grenade which was approved for military use in September 9, 2024. [8] Several insurgent groups have produced their own grenades based on the F-1. [6] There are different production variations according to country of origin, including fuse and explosive filling.
The year 2024 was one for the history books, and 538's visual journalists and reporters were hard at work explaining the data behind the news with visualizations and interactives. From 538’s ...
Iron(III) oxide in a vial. Iron(III) oxide or ferric oxide is the inorganic compound with the formula Fe 2 O 3.It occurs in nature as the mineral hematite, which serves as the primary source of iron for the steel industry.
