METHOD OF PREPARING OF EXPLOSIVES CONTAINING AMMONIUM NITRATE, HYDROCARBON FUEL AND SURFACE-ACTIVE SUBSTANCE Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: explosive compositions. SUBSTANCE: ammonium nitrate is stirred with emulsion obtained by water addition to hydrocarbon fuel and surface-active substance. Concentration of water and surface-active substance is 0.2-0.5 and 0.1-0.5 wt.-%, respectively, of explosive. Pentaerythritol or glycerol esters with fatty acids C₁₂-C₂₀ or pentaerythritol polyesters with synthetic acids C₂₁-C₂₅ were used as surface-active substances. EFFECT: improved method of explosives preparing. 3 cl
