Definitions

  • This invention is an explosive compound
  • the compound consists of the following ingredients: cornmeal, sulfur, glycerin, alcohol, saltpeter, and chlorate of potash, and the manner of preparing it is as follows: Sixteen ounces of cornmeal arecooked for about five of which are thoroughly stirred to make an intimate mixture. This mixture is then allowed to dry to e sufficient extent, so that it will grain when forced through a screen for that purpose. The powder so formed will be found more powerful than ordinary gunpowder andsa-fer to handle than other high explo' sives of the nitro class.

This invention ,is an explosive compound;
"and its object is to provide a powder characterized by a'smokeless quality and bya large explosive force and well adapted for use as gunpowder and also for blasting.
The compound consists of the following ingredients: cornmeal, sulfur, glycerin, alcohol, saltpeter, and chlorate of potash, and the manner of preparing it is as follows: Sixteen ounces of cornmeal arecooked for about five of which are thoroughly stirred to make an intimate mixture. This mixture is then allowed to dry to e sufficient extent, so that it will grain when forced through a screen for that purpose. The powder so formed will be found more powerful than ordinary gunpowder andsa-fer to handle than other high explo' sives of the nitro class.
What I claim as new, and
desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
An explosive compound comprising a. mixture of cornmeal, sulfur, glycerin, alcohol, saltpeter, and chlorate of potash, in substantially the proportions specified.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses. 1
