Possible substitutes for primary explosives containing lead may be compositions of the NSTEX type – mixtures of nanostructured thermites and explosives. These compositions, exhibit a number of unconventional features, intermediate between primary explosives and secondary explosives. These properties, make them the promising substitutes for primary explosives containing heavy metals, such as lead. The aim of this paper, is to identify the potential of application, possible challenges and risks associated with this issue.

Ewentualnym zamiennikiem materiałów wybuchowych inicjujących zawierających ołów mogą być kompozycje typu NSTEX – mieszaniny nanometrycznych termitów i materiałów wybuchowych. Kompozycje te wykazują szereg niekonwencjonalnych cech, pośrednich pomiędzy materiałami wybuchowymi inicjującymi a materiałami wybuchowymi kruszącymi. Właściwości te czynią je obiecującymi zamiennikami materiałów wybuchowych inicjujących, zawierających metale ciężkie, takie jak ołów. Celem pracy, jest określenie potencjału zastosowania, możliwych wyzwań i zagrożeń związanych z tym zagadnieniem.
