Abstract

This paper presents the results of investigation of the detonation velocity of an emulsion explosive sensitized with Expancel polymer microballoons in a wide range of initial density of 0.14–1.33 g/cm3. It is shown that at a density of the emulsion explosive less than 0.4 g/cm3, detonation with an unstable front characteristic of liquid explosives is possible.
