水胶炸药（英語： Water gel explosive ）是一种由水和硝酸铵作氧化剂，以甲基胺硝酸盐作可燃剂，以古尔胶作胶凝剂，按比例配制成的混合炸药。 其密度为1.12～1.25g/cm 3 ，爆速 …

A water gel/slurry explosive is essentially an aqueous solution of an inorganic oxidizer gelled with a carbonaceous gelling agent. Dispersion of fuel or additional oxidizer in the gel produces a …

Advantages of Tovex® Water Gel Explosives over dynamite are: Far safe to handle and to store in magazine as compared to dynamites. Better in controlling bore-hole density, powder factor. …

A water-gel explosive consists of ammonium nitrate alone or in admixture with other inorganic oxidized acid salt, water, nitroparaffin having one to 3 carbon atoms, a gelatinizing agent for …

Nov 30, 1998 · Water-gel or slurry explosives developed in the late 1950s became quite widespread in their use from the mid 1960s. This class of explosive has now mainly replaced …

With advantages in cost, safety and ease of use, water gel/slurry and emulsion explosives are rapidly replacing traditional explosives. As a result, cap sensitive versions of each are …

Water gel explosives are produced by stabilizing a dispersion of nitroparaffin, preferably nitromethane, in an aqueous oxidizer salt solution through the simultaneous in situ gelation of …

The present invention relates to a water-gel explosive comprising ammonium nitrate alone or in admixture with other inorganic oxidized acid salt, water, nitroparaffin having 1 to 3 carbon...
