Detonability of aqueous suspensions of explosives

详细

The detonability of aqueous suspensions of solid explosives (pentaerythritol tetranitrate, cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine, cyclotetramethylenetetranitramine) was used as a basis for evaluating the explosion safety of these substances in production and transportation. The dependence of the critical detonation parameters of the suspensions on the content and dispersity of the explosives was determined. A new common method for calculating the critical detonation diameters of suspensions of crystalline explosives in organic media and in water was developed. A novel procedure for preparing uniform sedimentation-resistant aqueous suspensions of crystalline explosives was suggested and developed.
