Description

  

  Procédé d'enrobage de substances métalliques granuleuses ou poudreuses  destinées à former un mélange explosif    On sait que l'incorporation     d'aluminium    fine  ment divisé à des explosifs ou à des mélanges explo  sifs leur confère des propriétés très intéressantes.  Toutefois, de tels mélanges explosifs     présentent    l'in  convénient d'être     instables    et de provoquer des acci  dents, notamment par l'éclatement de munitions  chargées. Ces accidents sont dus     vraisemblablement     à des dégagements d'hydrogène provoqués par l'at  taque de l'aluminium ou d'autres métaux par l'humi  dité.  



  La     présente    invention, qui vise à obvier à ces  inconvénients, a pour objet un procédé d'enrobage  de     substances        métalliques    granuleuses ou poudreuses  entrant dans la composition de mélanges explosifs,       caractérisé    par le fait que l'on plonge les granules  ou poudres dans un solvant inerte par rapport à ces  granules ou poudres, on     dissout    ou émulsionne en  suite dans le solvant la matière d'enrobage, on pré  cipite cette dernière par refroidissement ou par ad  dition d'un autre liquide sur les granules ou     poudres,

       et l'on procède à une     filtration    pour     éliminer    la  phase     liquide.     



  Selon un mode de fabrication préféré, le procédé  peut être exécuté de la manière suivante: on enrobe  des grains d'aluminium ou d'autres métaux ou     allia-          ges    dans un produit insoluble dans l'eau, c'est-à-dire  qu'on     recouvre    les grains d'une pellicule continue,  extrêmement mince et résistante de produit     enro-          bant,    la protection étant, bien entendu, d'autant plus  efficace que l'enrobage est plus total.

   La matière     en-          robante    peut être constituée par     l'une    ou l'autre des  substances suivantes employées seules ou en mé  lange avec d'autres :     paraffine,    gomme, résine synthé  tique, cire animale, végétale, minérale, de pétrole ou       synthétique.       La proportion de produit d'enrobage par rapport  à l'aluminium ou autre matière peut     varier    dans de  larges     limites    (1 à 30 %) qui dépendent des carac  téristiques et propriétés recherchées : les taux les  plus courants étant compris entre 2 et 8 %.  



  On peut utiliser de     l'aluminium    ainsi enrobé par  le procédé selon l'invention pour fabriquer directe  ment un mélange explosif tel que, par exemple,       l'hexal,    soit par granulation sous l'eau à partir  d'hexogène     flegmatisé    ou non, de poudre ou gre  naille d'aluminium enrobée, préparée comme indi  qué ci-dessus, et éventuellement de     flegmatisant,    soit  par mélange à sec à température convenable     d'hexo-          gène        flegmatisé    et de poudre ou de     grenaille    d'alu  minium enrobée, préparée comme indiqué ci-dessus.

    <I>Exemple 1</I>  On introduit 100 kg de grenaille d'aluminium   <  0,15 mm et 15 kg de     paraffine    dans trois cents  litres d'alcool éthylique. On agite,     chauffe    à<B>600C,</B>  refroidit, filtre     et    sèche.  



  <I>Exemple 11</I>  On introduit 100 kg de grenaille     d'aluminium      <  0,15 mm et 30 kg de cire d'abeille dans deux cents  litres de benzène. On agite,     chauffe    à     701,    C, refroi  dit, filtre et sèche. La solution de cire dans le ben  zène peut être avantageusement recyclée.  



  On peut utiliser de la grenaille     d'aluminium    en  robée pour préparer les mélanges explosifs     suivants     a) On introduit<B>150</B> kg d'hexogène, 45 kg de gre  naille d'aluminium enrobée, préparée comme in  diqué dans les exemples précédents, et 5 kg de  paraffine dans     six    cent cinquante litres d'eau.      On agite,     chauffe    à     601)    C, refroidit, filtre et  sèche.  



  b) Dans un appareil mélangeur     biconique    on intro  duit 100 kg d'hexogène     flegmatisé    à 5 % et  <I>25 kg</I> de grenaille     d'aluminium    enrobée et pré  parée comme indiqué ci-dessus. On     chauffe    à  700 C et fait tourner le mélange durant trente       minutes,    puis on décharge après refroidissement  partiel ou total.  



  On peut également fabriquer d'autres     mélanges     explosifs contenant de l'aluminium en     utilisant    de la  poudre ou grenaille     d'aluminium,    protégée par une  matière     enrobante    convenablement     choisie,    et pré  parée comme il est décrit ci-dessus.  



  On pourrait même, le cas échéant,     utiliser    au lieu  d'aluminium, d'autres métaux de la même série, tels  que magnésium, bore, silicium,     glucinium    ou tous  alliages de ces     différents    métaux que l'on enrobe de  la manière indiquée ci-dessus.  



  Le procédé d'enrobage qui vient d'être décrit a,  notamment, pour avantage de permettre la     réalisa-          tion        d'explosifs    à base d'aluminium ou d'autres mé  taux ou alliages du même genre, présentant une  grande stabilité et ne     risquant    pas d'altération.



  Process for coating granular or powdery metal substances intended to form an explosive mixture It is known that the incorporation of finely divided aluminum in explosives or in explosive mixtures gives them very advantageous properties. However, such explosive mixtures have the disadvantage of being unstable and of causing accidents, in particular by the bursting of loaded ammunition. These accidents are probably due to the release of hydrogen caused by moisture attack on aluminum or other metals.



  The present invention, which aims to obviate these drawbacks, relates to a process for coating granular or powdery metal substances entering into the composition of explosive mixtures, characterized in that the granules or powders are immersed in a solvent inert with respect to these granules or powders, the coating material is then dissolved or emulsified in the solvent, the latter is precipitated by cooling or by adding another liquid to the granules or powders,

       and filtration is carried out to remove the liquid phase.



  According to a preferred method of manufacture, the process can be carried out as follows: grains of aluminum or of other metals or alloys are coated in a product insoluble in water, that is to say that The grains are covered with a continuous, extremely thin and strong film of coating product, the protection being, of course, the more effective the more complete the coating.

   The encapsulating material may consist of any of the following substances used alone or in admixture with others: paraffin, gum, synthetic resin, animal, vegetable, mineral, petroleum or synthetic wax. The proportion of coating product relative to the aluminum or other material can vary within wide limits (1 to 30%) which depend on the characteristics and properties sought: the most common rates being between 2 and 8%.



  Aluminum thus coated by the process according to the invention can be used to directly manufacture an explosive mixture such as, for example, hexal, or by granulation under water from hexogen, whether or not phlegmatized, of coated aluminum powder or grit, prepared as indicated above, and optionally phlegmatizer, either by dry mixing at suitable temperature of phlegmatized hexogen and coated aluminum powder or shot, prepared as shown above.

    <I> Example 1 </I> 100 kg of aluminum shot <0.15 mm and 15 kg of paraffin are introduced into three hundred liters of ethyl alcohol. Stirred, heated to <B> 600C, </B> cooled, filtered and dried.



  <I> Example 11 </I> 100 kg of aluminum shot <0.15 mm and 30 kg of beeswax are introduced into two hundred liters of benzene. Stirred, heated to 701 ° C., said cooling, filtered and dried. The wax solution in the ben zene can be advantageously recycled.



  Aluminum shot can be used to prepare the following explosive mixtures a) <B> 150 </B> kg of hexogen, 45 kg of coated aluminum grit, prepared as indicated in previous examples, and 5 kg of paraffin in six hundred and fifty liters of water. Stirred, heated to 601) C, cooled, filtered and dried.



  b) In a biconical mixing apparatus, 100 kg of 5% phlegmatized hexogen and <I> 25 kg </I> of aluminum shot coated and prepared as indicated above are introduced. The mixture is heated to 700 ° C. and the mixture is rotated for thirty minutes, then the discharge is carried out after partial or total cooling.



  Other aluminum-containing explosive mixtures can also be made by using aluminum powder or shot, protected by a suitably selected coating material, and prepared as described above.



  It would even be possible, where appropriate, to use instead of aluminum, other metals of the same series, such as magnesium, boron, silicon, glucinium or all alloys of these different metals which are coated in the manner indicated below. -above.



  The coating process which has just been described has, in particular, the advantage of allowing the production of explosives based on aluminum or other metals or alloys of the same kind, exhibiting great stability and not risking no alteration.
