Cordeau Maissin.Maissin, in 1888, patented in France the use of granulated NC as a core of flexible detonating cord (cordeau detonant souple in Fr ),which was prepd in the same manner as the safety fuse of Bickford (See Vol 2, p B112-L of this Encycl). This cord was examined by CSE (Commission des Substances Explosives) and found to be satisfactory from the point of view of performance (Ref 2) (See also Refs 3 5)... [Pg.314]

Detonating fuse is called cordeau detonant in the French language, and cordeau has become the common American designation for it. Cordeau has been made from lead tubes filled with trinitrotoluene, from aluminum or block tin tubes filled with picric acid, and from tubes of woven fabric filled with nitrocellulose or with pentaerythrite tetranitrate (PETN). In this country the Ensign-Bickford Company, at Simsbury, Connecticut, manufac-... [Pg.11]
