its a question of oxygen balance
don't mix AP with magnesium or aluminum however.
You could mix AP with an equal ammount of Picric Acid or RDX
this is a dumb thing to do however seeing as it would decrease the power of the TNP or RDX
(but it would increase the power of the AP )
too many people on this forum use a main charge (myself included)
kind of off the topic, but if you want a really huge explosion just make a couple pounds of Picric Acid or RDX (hard to do)
or go the easy way and make a few kilos of ANFO and detonate it with an AP detonator and a TNP booster
