This specification covers the requirements, examinations and tests for two types of RDX for use in explosive compositions as follows: (see 6.1).

    Type I  - RDX made by the nitric acid process (see 6.8).      Type II - RDX made by the acetic anhydride process (see 6.8).

Intended Use: RDX is to be used as an energetic ingredient in a number of explosive compositions for applications where high energy is needed in ammunition items.
