HEAT-STABLE MOULDED COMPOSITE EXPLOSIVE

摘要

The specification describes heat-stable pressure-moulded composite explosives which comprise at least one crystalline explosive having a high rate of detonation and, as a synthetic binder therefor, a cross-linked silicone resin. These composite explosives are produced by coating the crystalline explosive in the presence of water with a thermosetting polysiloxane prepolymer, then drying and cross-linking the moulding powder obtained, and finally cold-compressing the cross-linked moulding powder to form a shaped composite explosive.
