ABSTRACT:
An improved fuel composition suitable for use in explosive compositions is obtained by forming a reaction product of a transition metal or transition metal compound, preferably iron or iron oxide, with ascorbic or erythorbic acid. The improved fuel composition is combined in admixture with an inorganic oxidizing agent to produce an improved explosive composition. When the improved fuel composition is combined in admixture with potassium nitrate, an improved explosive composition suitable for use as a gunpowder having enhanced performance characteristics is obtained. Methods for making the fuel composition and the explosive composition are also disclosed.
