BLAST-RESISTANT CONTAINER A blast-resistant container for receiving an explosive or explosive-suspect article comprises a high-strength outer housing, and an inner compressible layer of a mixture including vermiculite in a binder, effective to space the article from the outer housing, to absorb energy of the blast before transmited to the outer housing, to distribute the blast forces over a larger surface area of the outer housing, and to impart resistance to the penetration of fragments to the outer housing. |
