The reaction of ethylenediamine and ammonium nitrate is a quantitative acid-base reaction to form a salt, ethylenediamine dinitrate, and a weak base, ammonia, according to the following chemical equation: ##STR1## The basic reaction proceeds fairly rapidly but the product and byproduct may remain in a slurry state for several days prior to solidification. The product is explosive in the slurry state and may be used as is or poured into place for use as an explosive. The solidification of the product ethylenediamine dinitrate can be hastened by the removal of the byproduct ammonia. This can be accomplished by heating or otherwise removing the ammonia or by reacting the ammonia with an additional substance to form a solid.
