Abstract

1,189,540. Explosive compositions. HERCULES Inc. 19 Dec., 1967 [4 Jan., 1967 (2)], No. 57722/67. Heading C1D. An aqueous slurry blasting composition comprises an inorganic oxidizing salt, particulate silicon, a thickener, and an aeration agent to lower the specific gravity of the composition. The aeration agent is preferably sodium nitrite with or without sodium bicarbonate; gas bubbles may also be generated by adding carbonates or bicarbonates as described in United States Specifications 3,288,658 and 3,288,661. The inorganic salt may be ammonium nitrate and/or sodium nitrate; reference is also made to other alkali metal and alkaline earth metal nitrates and also chlorates and perchlorates. Suitable thickeners are guar gum, which may be cross-linked, carboxymethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, water-soluble starches, and cereal flour. The composition may also contain a carbonaceous fuel and an explosive sensitizing agent; specified further ingredients are ethylene glycol, ground coal, amine nitrate, granulated sugar, DNT, sulphur, gilsonite, fuel oil, nitroparaffins, smokeless powder, TNT, RDX, HMX and PETN.
