COPPER ACETYLIDE vs SILVER ACETYLIDE
How do these primary explosives compare?
Sensitivity ?
Power ?

Price ?

Copper acetylide is dangerously sensitive; silver acetylide (Ag2C2 * AgNO3) is less so. Both are about the same difficulty to make.
Copper is cheaper than silver.

Has anyone made the magnesium version and are there any hazardous byproducts or things to watch out for?
