ABSTRACT:
A color-coded taggant for the post-detonation identification of explosive material. Retrieval of the taggnt after detonation of an explosive is facilitated by the addition of nickel formate to the taggant. The additive renders the taggant magnetically susceptible only after detonation. This eliminates the possiblity of the unauthorized removal of the taggant by a magnet before detonation but retains the advantages of facile retrieval by means of a magnet subsequent to detonation.
