Since Methyl Nitrate is a closely related substance to Nitromethane but it's supposedly way more energetic explosive (higher RE factor than Nitroglycerine, 1.5+) shouldn't mixing it with Ammonium Nitrate in a 1AN:2MN ratio (oxygen balances AN +20% MN -10%) make an explosive with RE factor close to PETN or such (like how adding AN to TNT makes it .17 more effective)? I see nothing to prevent that yet I have never heard of such explosive being used even by terrorists. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.153.172.99 ( talk) 05:40, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
