Hello

Nitrous oxide is a gas known as laughter gas and kills more people by filling up the bottles then they explode. NO´x is as far I know not a explosive but it will speed up explosions.

Nitromethan is a fuelmixture that can get very explosive and that is sometimse to see when top fueler burst off there compressors or heads. The highest risk on that fuel is that it burns unvisible. It has a much lower risk to explode and thats why the Cart, Nascar or what ever uses them.

Nitroglcerine is a high explosive and can send you into a satelie position.

If you go into a shop in germany and say "1L nitro please" you will get paint thinner.
