HMX Cyclotetramethylenetetranitramine
HMX, more powerful than RDX, is used in high-performance military explosives and rocket warheads. HTS 3602.00.00 covers it as a prepared explosive due to its nitramine structure and detonative nature, separate from slower-burning propellants.

TNT Trinitrotoluene Explosive
TNT (trinitrotoluene) is a high explosive prepared from toluene nitrated with nitric and sulfuric acids, used primarily in military shells and industrial blasting. It falls under HTS 3602.00.00 as a prepared explosive, distinct from propellant powders, due to its detonative properties rather than deflagrating combustion.
RDX Cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine
RDX is a powerful nitramine explosive used in military applications like plastic explosives (e.g., C-4) and shaped charges. Classified under HTS 3602.00.00 as a prepared explosive other than propellants due to its high-velocity detonation characteristics.
PETN Pentaerythritol Tetranitrate
PETN is a sensitive high explosive used in detonating cords, blasting caps, and demolition charges. It is classified under HTS 3602.00.00 as a prepared explosive, excluding propellant powders, based on its brisance and shock sensitivity.
Lead Azide Initiating Explosive
Lead azide is a primary high explosive used in detonators and primers for initiating secondary explosives. It falls under HTS 3602.00.00 as a prepared explosive, other than propellants, due to its extreme sensitivity to friction and impact.
Ammonium Permanganate Explosive
Ammonium permanganate is an unstable oxidizing explosive used in specialty pyrotechnics and initiators. Classified in HTS 3602.00.00 as a prepared explosive based on its rapid decomposition, excluding propellant powders.
Silver Fulminate Detonator Crystals
Silver fulminate consists of sensitive crystals used historically in blasting caps and modern micro-detonators. HTS 3602.00.00 applies as a prepared primary explosive, distinct from propellants by its instantaneous detonation.
