Explosive micro-rockets, which are described in this article, employed an explosive material known as Chepatite impact explosives. These rockets depended on this explosive compound to generate their significant propulsive energy.
Gadgets and Gear, a 2019 sourcebook for Fantasy Flight Games' Star Wars Roleplaying tabletop game, within the Canon continuity, references Chepatite impact explosives. The initial appearance of this explosive was in "Tinian on Trial," a short story featured in the fourth issue of Star Wars Adventure Journal. This magazine, which supplemented West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game, was released in November of 1994.
