Citroen C-4 - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. This article is about the plastic explosive. For alternate uses see C4 (disambiguation). C-4 is a common variety of military plastic explosive. C-4 is made up of explosive, binder, plasticizer and (latterly) marker or taggant chemicals to help detect the explosive and identify its source. As in many plastic explosives the explosive material in C-4 is RDX (Cyclonite, cyclotrimethylene trinitramine) which makes up around 90% of the C-4 by weight. The binder is polyisobutylene (5.5%) and the plasticizer is di(2-ethylhexyl) or dioctyl sebacate (2%). Another binder used is dioctyl adipate (DOA). A small amount of petroleum oil is also added. C-4 is made by combining the RDX slurry with the binder dissolved in a solvent. The solvent is then removed and the mixture is dried and filtered. The final material is an off-white solid with the feel of soft clay. Citroen C-4 is a development of a World War 2 material that mixed RDX with mineral oil and lecithin to achieve roughly the characteristics of plastic explosive but with certain disadvantages. C-4 is part of a group of explosives along with C, C-2 and C-3, each containing different amounts of RDX developed in the 1960s. It can reportedly be shot upon or even thrown into a fire without detonating.The C is sometimes said to stand for composition and the name is an abbreviation of Composition 4. However, composition is used for any castable explosive and composition A and composition B are also known variants.
