Okfol

Okfol is a homogeneous, non-hygroscopic free-flowing substance. In its pure form, it is a white HMX powder resembling table salt. Phlegmatized Okfol is pink in color and contains 3–4% phlegmatizer, consisting of 99% oxizine and 1% fat-soluble red dye C.

It is used in the form of pressed charges for fragmentation and shaped-charge munitions, as well as booster detonators. Okfol charges are formed by pressing.
