A uniform that explodes. That seems even more feasible. Military uniforms have stud or shank buttons, which do not have issues with a standard weight
since no one cares to weigh them. They're sewn to the fabric and, if all the buttons on an uniform have the same feel, undetectable.

Is there any report of such clothing? or it is again a mere myth?
Is there even any polymeric high explosives that could be used in manufacturing clothing or even objects?
Such as below image (Notice it is just an imaginary polymer with similarities to Polystyrene, perhaps it could be called PolyNitrostyrene!)

The problem of this myth "Detonable Uniforms" is that is there detonable fabrics?

An Hardplastic explosvie like Nipolite you could make many things as an
explosive.

Again, none so far.

Welcome to the amazing world of plastics! From billiard balls to motion picture films, from paints and lacquers to filtration membranes, and
souvenirs, such as a small pocket knife with celluloid handle scales (I have one). Nitrocellulose and its mixtures, poly(4-nitrostyrene), nitrostarch,
polyvinyl nitrate.

Back in the day the 'Black book(s)' give recipes for eXplosive cake etc using RDX.

It's good that you brought up this topic Laboratory of Liptakov 
To the best of my knowledge, Detasheet PETN-based plastic explosives are not so easily detectable by X-ray gates. In addition, I once checked a
self-made detasheet (PETN, plasticizer and nitrocellulose) - it detonated in a strip 0.5 mm thick and 15 mm wide. For such materials, it is not so
much the critical diameter that is important, but the critical thickness layer (ratio of thickness to width).
Regarding the micro detonator, I would not be surprised how any of the electronic components (SMD type resistor or capacitor) was covered with the
primary explosive. The question is which one, that it was also not detected. The mass of such an igniter need not exceed 0.1g if it is in contact with
the PETN.
Regarding the mass - knowing the dimensions of the pager, you can determine its volume and on this basis calculate what mass of explosive could have
been used. From the information I found and received, inside the electronics occupy 70-80% of the box. In addition, it is worth adding that the pagers
were programmed in such a way that the explosion would occur (supposedly) after the 3rd signal. That a person would take it in his hand and bring it
close to his face, in order to increase the impact of the shrapnel and the material itself.
What do you think about this?

What a time to be alive.
Liptakov? Is that Ukraine or Russia? Or it just sounds like that?
...
This again reminded me how I had a digital copy of Terrorist Cookbook. Was it Cookbook or Handbook.

From the information gathered, it appears that a so-called thermal shock was used to initiate the PETN in the pagers. The heat from partially shorting
the battery combined with the aluminum and copper in the battery design created the conditions for a full detonation.....

I think this is false information.
Special services will not use the unreliable method when they have all materials for a reliable method. They will use a microdetonator containing
20-50mg of primary explosives.
