Description

-UNi-rso STATES ATENT titties,
MANUEL EissLER, or NEW YORK, n. Y., ASSIGNOR to THE UNi rEu s'rA'rEs DYNAMITE COMPANY.
ovum-re -SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent 119,347,424, dated August T7, 18596,
Applieallon filed September l, 1584, Senial No. l lfipllfl.
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that l, lit-mum,Eissrinu, of the city of New York, in the county and State of New York, have made certain new and useful Improvemepls in the lllanufactnre of Explosive Compounds; and I hereby declare thcl'ollowing to bea full and clear description of the same.
In the manufacture of explosive compounds containing liquid explosives, such as nitro- 'glycerinc, it is very desirable to produce them of such a consistence and composition that con" tact with water will not allect their explosive properties, and that the compound may contain alarge proportion of the liquid explosive. The object of my invention is to prod nee an explosive compound which will be capable of containing a very large quantity of nitro-glyccrine, together with nonabsorbent combust-iblegranules ofuitrate otpotash or soda or other nitratesalts without any danger oft'he nit-roglycerine leaking out of the compound, the
compound being also unall'ected by moisture or contact with water.
I am aware that it has long been the practice to mix some combustible resinous or gummy substance with the granules of nitrate salts, either separate or combined with a carbon, so that the resinous or gummy substance will coat and render the granules of nitrate salts impervious to moisture. Granules of nitrate salts so prepared, with an outer covering of resin, have been mixed with nitroglyeerine and an explosive compound thus produced; but such compound will only admit of the use of a limited proportion ol' the liquid nitroglycerine with safety, as the nonabsorhent granules allow the nitro glycei 'ine to leak when in excess of a very thin eoatin in the use of such a compound composed of granules with a liquid explosive in cases where there is great moisture, the'prcsence of such moisture will cause dcliquescence and separate the granules and constituent parts of the compound, so as to destroy or impair its explosive qualities. 'lhis disintegration of the compound takes place in the use of all explosive compounds in which nilroglyccriue is uscd,and held in place by the capillary attraction of thesolid parlielesoltiic compound (No specimens.)
when such compounds come in contact with great moisture, which is the case when they are used under water. By my improved process of manufacture and combination of iugreuients I produce an explosive compound eontaininga very large percentage of nitroglye' crinc combined with-uou-absorbent granules of nitrate salts, which will not become danger, ous i'rom leakage, and is free from the injurious effects of moisture even when immersed in water.
In making my explosive compound I. first take a liquid explosive, such as nitro-glyeerinc, and mix with it about five per cent oi nitratcd cellulose or some fibrous material, such as collodion-cotton and the various spe- 'eies of nitrated cellulose, by which I obtain a thick sirupy substance, something similar to thin gclatine. I then prepare non-absorbent combustible granules of nitrate salts by grind 7o ing nitrate ot' potash or soda finely and pouring on it a melted mixture composed oi htteen parts of resin, colophony, or tar, and live parts of paralliue melted together. The resin and paralline is hotand in liquid form when poured on the nitrate salts, and the combined mixture should be thoroughly stirred until all the granules of the nitrate salts are coated with the paralllnc and resin. This will take aoout seven parts of the paralline-and-resin mixture ,80' to one hundred parts ofthe nitrate salts. After the mass of coated granules or of nitrate salts is cool, the parts are ready for the final mixing of the dittcrent ingredients. 'iofort-y parts, by weight, of the coated granules of ne o5 trate salts I add about seven parts of wood or paper pulp, together with about three partsoi' dextrine, or rye-flour, or glucose, and after intimately mixing them together, fifty parts of the niixture N0. licomposcd of gelatinized 9o nit-roglyecrino) is added. The whole mass being new kneaded together, a uniform plastic mass is formed, as the dcxtrinc or rye-flour will act as a binding agent between the other ingredients.
The above will malie a very strong explosive compound, which is not aitected by contact with or submersion in water.
The proportion of melted resin and paraifine to the nitrate salts will not vary, nor will the ICU '2 fly means ol'eleetrieity or otherwise.
