| 摘要 |
A method is described of formulating a cast explosive composition in which a stable, fluid, water-containing, water-in-oil emulsion explosive is formed, to which is added a desiccant or emulsion destabilizing agent or both in an amount sufficient to cause the emulsion explosive to solidfy. The desiccant may for example be a metallic nitrate, perchlorate, chlorate, sulfate, hydrogen sulfate, chloride, phosphate, carbonate or acetate salt; silica, alumina or charcoal; magnesium or calcium oxide; or an acid anhydride, acid halide, isocyanate or ester. The emulsion destabilising agent may be an alkyl, aryl or alkyl aryl sulfonate, phosphate, carboxylate, amine, alcohol, polyalcohol, ester or an amide or an ethoxylated derivative thereof; a clay, alumina or silica; or an alcohol, ether, ester, ketone or organic acid. |
