Gelled nitromethane composition
Patent
·
OSTI ID:6796465
A process is described for the production of a gelled explosive composition of nitromethane, inorganic nitrate, a water or methanol fluid medium, and gelling agents. It consists of mixing the nitromethane and the fluid medium, adding with thorough agitation the inorganic nitrate, a gelling agent for the fluid medium, and a cyanoethyl ether of galactomannan gum gelling agent for the nitromethane. The process is essentially a one-step process. The liquids, i.e., nitromethane and fluid medium, are charged to a kettle, then the solids are added with thorough agitation to provide good mixing.
