Copper-Based Explosive
In this video I synthesize the beautiful primary explosive tetraamine copper persulfate. This is a fairly weak primary as far as they go, so definitely MUCH safer than something like silver fulminate or any azide. DISCLAIMER: Even though this compound is a very weak explosive, this should still not be performed by anyone but those with formal training in handling energetic compounds. Even something like this could cause severe burns or injury if not handled appropriately.

I'm not sure if he creates videos at the moment, but if he does in the future here's the link: / @guerrillachemistry-ot3vs I also didn't include any music in this video, and I plan to put out a couple more without music to get some feedback as I've gotten a lot of mixed opinions on its inclusion.
