METHOD TO IMPROVE EXPLOSIVES AND EXPLOSIVE /VERSIONS/ Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC C06B25/00 C06B27/00 C06B31/28 C06B33/08 

FIELD: blasting.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to explosives used in civil blasting works and in military ammunition, mostly cumulative. The method to improve explosives includes addition of boron or its compound to a nitrogen-containing explosive. Mixtures of octogene or ammonia nitrate are described, or ammonia dinitramide with boron or boron compounds, including tetraboran, diboran, berillium boron hydride, and a mixture of boron with berillium boron hydride. Substantially boron reacts exothermally with nitrogen with increased energy of explosion; compounds of boron, such as borans, also provide for large amount of hydrogen.

EFFECT: invention provides for higher speed of fragment flight, pressure at impact wave front and radius of fragment action and action of a field charge during explosion.
