Abstract

903,614. Explosive compositions. CONSOLIDATION COAL CO. Aug. 25, 1960 [Sept. 21, 1959], No. 29367/60. Class 9 (2). An explosive composition is obtained by first mixing particulate ammonium nitrate and a liquid hydrocarbon fuel and then comminuting the mixture by exerting a compressive force by passing the mixture between the rolls of a roller crusher. Preferably the fuel oil constitutes 1 to 6% by weight based on the mixture. The rolls of the roller crusher may be spaced 0.005 inch apart and rotated at 30 r.p.m. The product may be detonated by a No. 6 cap, both in a tube 6 ft. long by 1 inch diameter and in an open trench in a hard soil. The fuel oil may have a flash point above 100‹ F. and a 90% distillation point at 675‹ F.
