Explosive

Description

Technical field

[0001] Technical solution relates to explosive.

Background art

[0002] In last ten years there is in Czech republic as well as in other European countries the extensive armies reduction in progress, linked with large volumes of excessive ammunition liquidation. Liquidation generally proceeds in the form of delaboration with subsequent utilization of at least some ammunition components and/or individual ammunition components liquidation. One of the most important delaborated ammunition components are delaborated smokeless powders. These materials are liquidated either by burning or are utilized as raw material for new smokeless powders production or are utilized at rock shooting and blasting in quarries directly as industrial explosives.

[0003] The utilization of delaborated smokeless powders at rock shooting and blasting is meaningful utilization of these materials in fact, but it brings one principal disadvantage, inhering in danger of transition of delaborated smokeless powders detonation into burning, by which strong losses of energy necessary for rock shooting and blasting happen.

[0004] The aim of technical solution is to remove or at least to minimize the drawbacks of the background art.

Principle of the invention

[0005] The aim of the technical solution is reached by explosive, whose principle is that it is constituted by mixture of delaborated smokeless powder with prilled porous ammonium nitrate containing fuel component, whereas content of delaborated smokeless powder in explosive mass is 20 to 80 % w/w.

[0006] Advantage of this explosive is that ammonium nitrate with fuel component in mixture with delaborated smokeless powder ensures necessary workability and manipulativeness of explosive mass, that inhibits separation of individual components of explosive at transport and manipulation, whereas further ensures detonation reliability. Delaborated smokeless powder in mixture ensures augmentation of energetic potential of explosive.

Examples of embodiment

[0007] Explosive is constituted by mixture of delaborated smokeless powder with prilled porous ammonium nitrate, that contains fuel component. Fuel component can be for example mineral oil, or coleseed oil - methylester etc.

Example No 1:

[0008] Explosive contains 50% w/w of prilled porous ammonium nitrate, 2,5% w/w of fuel and 47,5 % w/w of delaborated smokeless powder.

Example No 2:

[0009] Explosive contains 76% w/w of prilled porous ammonium nitrate, 4% w/w of fuel and 20 % w/w of delaborated smokeless powder.

Example No 3:

[0010] Explosive contains 19% w/w of prilled porous ammonium nitrate, 1% w/w of fuel and 80 % w/w of delaborated smokeless powder.

Claims

1. Explosive, characterized by that it is constituted by mixture of delaborated smokeless powder with prilled porous ammonium nitrate, which contains fuel component, whereas content of delaborated smokeless powder in explosive mass is 20 to 80% w/w.
