This article stresses safe handling of high explosives especially nitro glycerine powders. It warns that cold weather increases danger because nitro glycerine freezes at 42 degrees F and must be thawed properly. It recommends gradual even warming to 212 F, use of specialized thawing ovens or steam rooms, and competent supervision for large quantities. It cautions against warming near open flames and against prolonged stationary storage to avoid separation of nitro glycerine from the dope.
