Definitions

  • This invention relates to a high power explosive formed by a mixture of combustible organic substances or carbon with combustible metallic powders such as aluminium, antimony, magnesium, silicium, etc., said mixture being shortly before use, impregnated with liquid air, which latter is added to the mixture only after the mass has been introduced either into the bore hole or into a special cartridge.

  • the proportion of combustible metallic powder may be reduced to less than 150 grams per liter of composition.
  • the absorbent for liquid air is formed by a combustible substance and not by an inert one.
  • the liquid air rich in oxygen may be remetallic powder in the proportion of less.
  • An explosive composed of a mixture of combustible organic substances capable of absorbing liquid air with combustible me tallic powders, in the proportion of less than 150 grams of combustible metallic powders perliter of composition, said mixture being impregnated with liquid air.

Application filed September 27, 1919. Serial No. 326,972.
(@EAHTED ER THE PROVISIONS OF THE ACT OF MARCH 3, 1921, 41 STAT. L., 1313.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GUILLAUME WEBER, citizen of the Republic of France, residing at Hayange, Lorraine, France, have invented new and useful Improvements in Explosives, for which I have filed an application in ermany July 9, 1915, in England Aug. 30, 1915, and in Switzerland Aug. 3, 1915, Patout No. 72,057,) of which the fOllOWlHg'IS a specification.
This invention relates to a high power explosive formed by a mixture of combustible organic substances or carbon with combustible metallic powders such as aluminium, antimony, magnesium, silicium, etc., said mixture being shortly before use, impregnated with liquid air, which latter is added to the mixture only after the mass has been introduced either into the bore hole or into a special cartridge. The impregnation of the cartridge can also be effected in a vessel filled with liquid air in which it may be left until complete saturation.
By mixing the combustible organic substance or substances which are capable of absorbing liquid air, with the combustible metallic powder or powders, the proportion of combustible metallic powder may be reduced to less than 150 grams per liter of composition.
It will be noted that the absorbent for liquid air is formed by a combustible substance and not by an inert one.
The liquid air rich in oxygen may be remetallic powder in the proportion of less.
than 150 grams of combustible metallic powder per liter of composition, said mixture being impregnated with liquid air.
2. An explosive composed of a mixture of combustible organic substances capable of absorbing liquid air with combustible me tallic powders, in the proportion of less than 150 grams of combustible metallic powders perliter of composition, said mixture being impregnated with liquid air.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
GUILLAUME WEBER.
