Abstract

Two explosive compositions ISU-4K and ISU-5R based on ammonium nitrate with added coke, diesel fuel, and rubber crumbs are tested so as to establish their sensitivity to mechanical and thermal perturbations. The flash point corresponding to 60-s delay is established. The kinetic parameters of thermal disintegration of the explosives are determined. The information obtained may be used in compiling standard documents (of GOST, OST, TU, VTU, and other types) and writing industrial regulations.
