Abstract:
Some performance of a number of emulsion explosives containing glass micro-baloons were studied experimentally and theoretically. For each of the explosives, detonation velocity was measured and calculated and ballistic mortar tests and cylinder expansion tests were carried out. The results obtained enables a comparison of the usefulness of both testing methods. The influence of some metal nitrates contained in the emulsion matrix on the performance and detonation parameters of the explosives was examined.
Keywords:explosives, glass micro-balloons, nitrates of metals, detonation parameters, performance.
