Explosions, in solids

The first successful method of firing explosives in solid coal was the... [Pg.88]

Explosions in solids and liquids can be even more violent than in gases because the energy content per mole is comparable, but the density of sohds and liquids is approximately 1000 times the density of gases at atmospheric pressure. [Pg.433]

Andreev (Ref 154) published a book on the thermal decompn and expln of substs which includes a discussion on azides. Recent exptl work on azide research has been reviewed in a symposium on the initiation and growth of explosions in solids [Proc Roy Soc 246A, pp 145-297 (1958)]. Wyatt (Ref 160) discussed ignition by elec discharge, Bowden (Ref 162) ignition by neutrons, a-particles and fission products, Kaufman (Ref 163)... [Pg.550]

As a special topic, solids transport in a pilot-scale rotary kiln was studied and outlined in a paper of N. Descoins et al. Finally, two papers give examples on environmental aspects of this field. A nice overview on dust control and explosions in solids handling plants are given P. Wypych et al. with description of some own experimental results. Application... [Pg.140]

Figure 3.1 I Alfred Nobel s invention of dynamite provided a powerful explosive in solid form. The actual explosive in dynamite is nitroglycerin, whose molecular structure is shown. Nitroglycerin is a liquid under ordinary conditions, so its use as a commercial explosive was extremely hazardous.
