ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing explosive articles which contain primary explosives and therefore present explosion hazards during conventional loading and packaging operations is disclosed which includes desensitizing the primary explosive such as silver fulminate, for example, by admixing therewith an effective amount of a desensitizing agent to form a resulting composition so as to render the primary explosive insensitive to shock, depositing the desensitized primary explosive on a substrate material, and thereafter, resensitizing the primary explosive by allowing decomposition of the resulting composition to thereby recapture the sensitivity of the primary explosive so deposited.
