(5) In Schedule 1, Part III, the following definitions shall be added:

(a) After the definition “end-effectors”,

“energetic materials” means substances or mixtures that react chemically to release energy required for their intended application; “explosives”, “pyrotechnics” and “propellants” are subclasses of energetic materials

(b) After the definition “energetic materials”,

“explosives” means solid, liquid or gaseous substances or mixtures of substances which, in their application as primary, booster, or main charges in warheads, demolition and other applications, are required to detonate

(c) After the definition “polyclonal antibodies”,

“precursors” means speciality chemicals used in the manufacture of “explosives”

“propellants” means substances or mixtures that react chemically to produce large volumes of hot gases at controlled rates to perform mechanical work

(e) After the definition “propellants”,

“pyrotechnic(s)” means mixtures of solid or liquid fuels or oxidizers which, when ignited, undergo an energetic chemical reaction at a controlled rate intended to produce specific time delays, or quantities of heat, noise, smoke, visible light or infrared radiation; pyrophorics are a subclass of pyrotechnics, which contain no oxidizers but ignite spontaneously on contact with air

(6) In the header to ML4, in Schedule 1, Part III the words “other explosive devices and charges” shall be inserted after the word “missiles.”
