Bullet sensitive explosive material

Desensitization or phlegmatizotion) of an explosive, means rendering it insensitive or less sensitive to the following actions heat, shock, impact, percussion, rifle bullet or friction Desensitizer (or pblegmatizer) is a substance which makes insensitive or reduces the sensitivity of an explosive. The term phlegmatizer is also used for a material added to a cannon propint to reduce its erosive effect in gun barrels Desensitized explosives are those which are made insensitive to the above listed actions. [Pg.510]

Cartridges, whether they are based on a single projectile (bullet) or many (shot), have the same basic architecture (see Figure 1). At the base of the cartridge is a small amount of shock-sensitive chemical mixture this is termed the primer. Above the primer is an explosive mixture, the propellant, with the projectile (bullet or shot) clamped at the top of the cartridge. In the case of shot there may also be wadding material to hold the multiple projectiles separate from the propellant. [Pg.1692]
