Blast in cordite factory

Its ironical that my last blog was about a blast in a test tube. Today there is news about a massive explosion in the cordite factory in Ooty, that killed at least 5 people.A news report mentions that "An intermediary process of mixing dough (a nitrocellulose-nitroglycerine paste) was in progress when the explosion occurred. It brought down a part of the building".
