Thank you for this article. While I knew the formula for the peroxide-sulfuric acid mix I didn't know of the workings behind it.
However, you can make an extreamly intense flame with hydrogen peroxide with only pressure and silver. While I'm not going to pretend I fully understand all the mechanics and chemistry behind it, it does not seem to me that once it is concentrated there is much a person can not do to use it as a weapon. While there is a big difference in the making of an explosive than the makings of a flame, I'm sure there are chemists out there that can describe how provided that the people doing the act do not care about self-safety.
