Ive been collecting them since age 5 like CubScout merit badges, one thang ya dont wanna do is try to find out how you cant get your name removed from any of those lists, that where the real banger then gets posted on yee....;)

-Nice thing about being on specific Govt watch lists is pop'n up as a 'Non Investigative Subject' on the F.B.I index. That being, that ANYTIME you get pulled ovah for anything, even common traffic stops, when they run your info through zee BORG system/Shit-stem, a:

"Handling Code #4 F.B.I 'Non- Investigative Subject' pops' up, within its proscribed box is:

"DO NOT Search, Detain, Arrest, Nor Issue ANY Citations Of Any Kind"....~So catch n' release so to speak.....

-I know, as Ive been there for quite some years now & its worked out quite well inna few instances, aside from other types of harassment/attacks Ive endured due to targeting, sometimes it makes on wonder if the juice is truly worth tha squeeze though!....Ha!...;)

I'm SO glad you're doing better! I knew you were into energetics, but not to this degree, awesome! I've been messing around with a bunch of amine perchlorates and their complexes recently, hygroscopicity is definitely a problem with them though.

HE HAS RETURNED

PRAISE BE

@maxjoechl5663 - 2023-12-17

I love how obvious the potential of this complex seems in hindsight.

•More N2 = more pressure / brisance
•Ni(2+) just loves having 4 nitrogen lone pairs around itself
•Aminoguanidine = "what if urea, but we replace the carbonyl with an imide and the amine with hydrazine?"
•Add strongly oxidizing counter-ion

Only downside I could see is that the perchlorate would limit its usefulness as a primer by being corrosive… sure, some people might be allergic to nickel, but when compared to lead-salt primers (especially lead azide, where both ions are highly toxic), it doesn't seem like much of an issue.

If I am not mistaken, the carbonate grade for ceramics is not NiCO3 (CAS 3333-67-3) but 2 NiCO3.3 Ni(OH)2.4 H2O (CAS 12244-51-8) or NiCO3.2 Ni(OH).4 H2O (CAS 12607-70-4). Did you take it into account for your synthesis recipe ?

@joshuawinne - 2023-09-22

Any idea of the impact sensitivity of this? I've looked around and as you stated there is not much info floating around. Thanks.

@duganashley1337 - 2023-09-22

The crystal size controls sensitivity. The large crystals are as sensitive as lead azide maybe more. If you stir while it's cooling, you will get smaller crystals less sensitive than lead azide. IMO, it is the best general purpose primary overall. I didnt want to like it because of aminoguanidine as the critical reagent, but after using it for 6 months or so, it became obvious its character and performance are like a swiss watch. IPA solvent version also appears less sensitive. I dont have an impact rig to compare.

@joshuawinne - 2023-09-23

@@duganashley1337 I actually found a channel using chloride instead of perchlorate and he has few clips of him hitting the crystals with a hammer. I would assume the perchlorate would be more sensitive. H68 is the channel.

@duganashley1337 - 2023-10-05

I tested dextrin and CMC, they both seem to alter the complex and change yields. Crystal size can be controlled by stirring during cooling. 200 rpm gives similar powder to IPA solvent. @@chemistryofquestionablequa6252
