China tests non-nuclear hydrogen bomb: Here's what it is capable of

Chinese scientists have successfully tested a non-nuclear hydrogen bomb amid the People's Liberation Army's (PLAs) push towards cleaner energy solutions. The move comes amid the US' increasing defence support to Taiwan, and China's quest for dominance in the South China Sea.

China tests non-nuclear hydrogen bomb, research says

According to a recent study, the 2kg (4.4lbs) hydrogen-based bomb generated a fireball exceeding 1,000 degrees Celsius (1,832 degrees Fahrenheit) and sustained it for more than two seconds. The blast lasted 15 times longer than a comparable TNT explosion and was conducted without the use of any nuclear material. The device was developed by the China State Shipbuilding Corporation, a key player in underwater weapons development. It uses a magnesium-based solid-state hydrogen storage material to achieve its explosive effect.
