Emulsifiers for explosive compositions.

摘要

The application relates to a product formed by the reaction of: a) one or more fatty acid esters of alcohols selected from the group consisting of hexitols and their cyclic or bicyclic anhydrides and pentitols and their anhydrides and mixtures thereof; and b) one or more conjoining agents capable of conjoining the fatty acid esters. The conjoining agents may also have two or more reactive functional groups wherein at least one functional group is capable of conjoining with the fatty acid esters and at least one functional group is capable of reacting with a multifoliate initiator. The product may be suitable for using as an emulsifier in a water-in-oil emulsion explosive and other industrial products.
