Peter, This is a most interesting question, about which I am currently engaged in research. Explosives derive their explosive force from the rapid expansion of gases. Water, for example, expands 1,200 times in volume when it is transformed from liquid to steam. There is no proof of which I am aware that even nano-thermite possesses any explosive properties other than those that may derive from its size as small particulate matter. If you know more about this, then I would be very glad if you would share it with me. Much of the evidence of its use is fake. Many thanks! Jim
