Definitions

  • the patent EP814069 thus describes a number of compositions associating a fuse part and a solid part.
  • the fusible portion essentially comprises a nitrated aromatic such as Trinitrotoluene (TNT) which is associated with a phlegmatizer such as wax.
  • TNT Trinitrotoluene
  • the solid part generally comprises oxynitrotriazole (ONTA) which is a grain explosive whose vulnerability is reduced. ONTA is more particularly described by the patent EP-210881 .
  • RDX reduced sensitivity Hexogen
  • This insensitive Hexogene (known commercially under the brand name i-RDX deposited by Eurenco or under the name RS-RDX) is described in particular by US Pat. FR2887544 and FR2917169 .
  • Table 1 below explains the results obtained: ⁇ b> Table 1 ⁇ / b> Explosive compositions Number of cards Impact pressure (Giga Pascals) TNT 40% / RDX insensitive 60% (supplier A) 234 1.7 TNT 40% / RDX insensitive 60% (supplier B) 234 1.7 TNT 40% / RDX not insensitive 60% 235 1.7
  • the aim of the invention is to propose a fuse / flowable explosive composition with reduced vulnerability and in which the proportion of Hexogen (RDX) is increased relative to the proportion of oxynitrotriazole (ONTA) (which increases the detonation performances) but without diminishing the insensitivity of the composition thus obtained.
  • RDX Hexogen
  • ONTA oxynitrotriazole
  • the subject of the invention is an explosive fuse / castable composition with reduced vulnerability, and comprising, on the one hand, a fusible part formed of at least one fusible explosive, and on the other hand a solid part comprising oxynitrotriazole.
  • ONTA and Hexogen (RDX), a composition which is characterized in that the Hexogen is a Hexogen with reduced sensitivity, the granulometry of the insensitive Hexogene being between 315 micrometers and 800 micrometers, while the particle size of ONTA is between 200 micrometers and 400 micrometers, ONTA also has a bulk density greater than or equal to 0.95 g / cm 3 .
  • the fusible explosive may be chosen from the following compounds: Trinitrotoluene, 2,4,6-Trinitro-N-methyl-Aniline, 2,4,6-Trinitro-3-methylphenol, 3 -Amino-Trinitrotoluene, 2,4,6-Trinitro-Aniline, 1,3,8-TriNitroNaphthalene and its isomeric mixture fusible at 115 ° C, 2,4-dinitroanisole (DNAN).
  • the fusible portion will advantageously be between 30% and 40% of the total mass of the composition.
  • the inventors have however chosen a larger particle size (thus a priori less suitable) because its association with the 200 to 400 micrometer particle size cut for ONTA leads to a lower porosity for the ONTA / RDX / Aluminum granular mixture and also for the composition. explosive which is then performed after casting TNT.
  • ONTA type 1 is an ONTA with rounded, spheroidal grains with relatively few surface irregularities.
  • ONTA type 2 is an ONTA whose grains have a more irregular outer shape.
  • the figure 1 shows a grain photograph of a type 1 ONTA.
  • figure 2 shows a grain photograph of a type 2 ONTA. These photographs were taken under a scanning electron microscope.
  • the apparent density ⁇ b of ONTA Type 2 tested is between 0.75 g / cm3 and 0.85 g / cm3.
  • the inventors have therefore sought to combine particle size fractions of oxynitrotriazole (having the most rounded grains) and insensitive Hexogene which make it possible to reduce this porosity. Cutting optimization granulometry and the choice of a ONTA with high apparent density have resulted in compactness of the optimal granular phase.
  • This composition has a detonation velocity of 7250 m / s and a sensitivity criterion Cs of 115 Kcal 2 / mol. Its porosity is 0.3%.
  • This composition has a detonation velocity of 7090 m / s and a sensitivity criterion Cs of 108 Kcal 2 / mol. Its porosity is 0.3%.
  • This composition has a detonation velocity of 7177 m / sec and a test sensitivity of Cs 2 112 kcal / mol. Its porosity is 0.4%.
  • This composition has a detonation velocity of 7075 m / s and a sensitivity criterion Cs of 106 Kcal 2 / mol. Its porosity is 0.4%.
  • the explosive composition according to the invention can be used for the loading of all types of projectiles and military heads.
  • This composition can be used to load artillery shells or the bodies of bombs or missiles.
  • the solid part will then be incorporated in the fused part by homogenizing the mixture (in a tank equipped with a mixer).
  • the melting and mixing will be carried out under vacuum.
  • Casting in the ammunition body will also be performed under vacuum.
  • a casting equipment that can be used for such a vacuum casting is described by the patent FR2923005 .
