DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to explosives based on ammonium nitrate-carbon mixtures. In particular, the present invention relates to a high-power explosive mainly composed of ammonium nitrate. Mixtures of porous granular ammonium nitrate and fuel oil are known to be consumed in large quantities as explosives. This explosive is commonly referred to as nitric oil explosive, and although it is inexpensive, its detonation speed is not very high.
Therefore, a cheap method based on ammonium nitrate,
There are also hopes for the development of explosives that are even more powerful than nitric oil explosives. The present inventors have discovered that an explosive made by adding fuel oil to a homogeneous mixture of ammonium nitrate and powdered carbon,
The present invention was achieved by discovering that the present invention has great power that meets the above expectations. More specifically, the present invention comprises a homogeneous mixture of ammonium nitrate and powdered carbon with the addition of fuel oil. A homogeneous mixture of ammonium nitrate and powdered carbon can be easily prepared by mixing powdered ammonium nitrate and powdered carbon. Preferably, a homogeneous mixture of ammonium nitrate and powdered carbon is prepared by adding powdered carbon to highly concentrated solution or molten ammonium nitrate, uniformly dispersing it, and then solidifying the ammonium nitrate. . For example, powdered carbon is added to ammonium nitrate that is concentrated to about 95% (by weight) and kept at high temperature and normal pressure in the form of a solution or molten ammonium nitrate, uniformly dispersed, and then cooled with stirring to form a powder. ammonium nitrate, or dripped from the top of a granulation tower to form granular ammonium nitrate. According to this method, when ammonium nitrate and powdered carbon are mixed, there is no local high temperature caused by friction or the like, so a uniform mixture can be produced safely. Although various types of powdered carbon can be used to mix with ammonium nitrate, it is preferable to use carbon black, activated carbon powder, or charcoal powder. As the carbon black, ordinary carbon black for rubber can be used. As activated carbon, those made from coconut shell, wood, lignite, coal, etc. are commercially available, and any of them can be used. It is preferable to use activated carbon powder and charcoal powder as fine as possible, and 200 mesh sieve quality is usually used.
Particularly preferred is carbon black, with ammonium nitrate-carbon black mixtures having greater thermal stability than ammonium nitrate activated carbon powder mixtures and ammonium nitrate-charcoal powder mixtures. Figures 1 to 3 are an example of a chart of differential thermal analysis under normal pressure of an ammonium nitrate-carbon mixture containing 5% (by weight) of carbon. From these figures,
Ammonium nitrate-carbon black mixture is
It is clear that it has a higher decomposition temperature and therefore greater thermal stability than ammonium nitrate-activated carbon powder and ammonium nitrate-charcoal powder. Powdered carbon is usually 0.2 to ammonium nitrate.
It is added in an amount of 7% (by weight), preferably 0.5% to 5% (by weight). In order to produce the explosive based on the ammonium nitrate-carbon mixture according to the present invention, fuel oil may be added to the ammonium nitrate-powdered carbon mixture and stirred thoroughly, as in the case of conventional nitric oil explosives. The amount of fuel oil added is usually 1 to 10% (by weight), preferably 2 to 8% (by weight) based on ammonium nitrate. As in conventional nitric oil explosives, the oxygen balance in the explosive according to the present invention is preferably adjusted to near zero. Note that the ammonium nitrate-powdered carbon mixture is preferably in the form of granules, particularly porous granules, from the viewpoints of anti-caking, oil absorption, loading properties, and other aspects. Therefore, when the mixture is in powder form, it is preferable to granulate it by rolling granulation or other appropriate method and use it as granules. EXAMPLES The present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to examples below, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples unless it exceeds the gist thereof. Example 1 Carbon black was added to an approximately 95% ammonium nitrate aqueous solution heated to a high temperature and stirred well to uniformly disperse it. Next, this was cooled while stirring to solidify the whole into a powder, and further dried until the water content became about 0.1% (by weight). Light oil (JIS No. 2 light oil) is added to the homogeneous mixture of ammonium nitrate and carbon black prepared in this manner, and the mixture is thoroughly stirred to allow the light oil to be uniformly absorbed into the ammonium nitrate, thereby forming an ammonium nitrate-carbon mixture as a base. Adjusted the explosives. This explosive was subjected to detonation velocity tests using the Dautritsch method in accordance with JIS K4810. The results are shown in the table. In addition, a detonator sensitivity test was conducted according to JIS K4826(A), but no detonation occurred with a single No. 6 detonator. 【table】
