Fordyn P dynamite is a gelatin explosive containing ammonium nitrate, nitroglycol and PETN.
Fordyn P is suitable for all types of blasting under normal conditions. Its characteristics make it an excellent choice particularly for underwater blasting and channelling applications and for use as a base charge in open-cut mining. Due to their high detonation velocity, Fordyn P cartridges can be used as boosters for bulk explosives, such as ANFOs and emulsions (Kemiitti). Fordyn P is also suitable for precision blasting, where extremely small amounts of explosives are used, as the material is easy to cut into small doses.
