As anyone know "nitroline", is an explosive made with sugar, NNO3, nitrate de potassium and cellulose.
5 to 20 parts (in volume) of sugar, 15 to 30 parts of HNO3. to this blend 15 to 30% with 5 to 15% of cellulose.
It seems to be real; if anyone can explain me,with great thanks.
(Oh excuse me if my english is very rusted).

I don't think this a HE.
It sounds like a strange way of mixing nitrocellulose with a KNO3/sugar smoke mix.
Am I wrong?

<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Am I wrong?</font>Yes! This is a Sprengel type explosive. People have long known about the nitric acid+cellulose explosive, it can be found in many "improvised explosives" manuals. And everyone knows what a good fuel sugar is (although the sensitivity of a nitric + sugar mix would be rather high). KNO<sub>3</sub> can simply be added as (energetic) filler, like how potassium nitrate is added to some dynamites.
