Height of drop

Impact sensitivity can be expressed by denoting the min height of drop at which a standard test wt (2 or 10kg) will detonate an expl sample... [Pg.652]

Impact Sensitivity — less sensitive than PA and TNT FI 120% PA. French test with 10kg weight (mouton) gave at the height of drop 2.50 meters, 50% detonations Initiation Sensitivity — 50g sample pressed to sp gr 1.23 in a paper cylinder 30mm diam required 2g MF for its detonation Power (Strength) — si more powerful than TNT, but less powerful than EDNA. Ballistic Mortar... [Pg.109]

The rate of detonation of a thin film of lead azide (0.1-0.5 mm thick) is 2100 m/sec (Bowden and Williams [101]). Lead azide is less sensitive to impact than mercury fulminate, but drop test figures quoted by various authors differ widely. Some of them report a negligible difference between the two, while others state it is considerable (e.g. that azide requires 2-3 times the height of drop necessary to explode fulminate). On the other hand, when mixed with pulverized sand lead azide is more... [Pg.172]

Drop Safety of Bomb Test or Bomb Functioning Test. Drop safety of bomb may be defined as the maximum height of drop for a given bomb oo a given surface without causing the bomb to fail, or without detonation An empirical formula computed at Aberdeen PG before WWII.as a.result of dropping various bombs from an airplane at a height of ca 20 00 ft on 2 ft deep reinforced concrete hard surface laid over a suitable... [Pg.443]

In the drop test there is actually determined the minimum height of drop that will damage the item under test to a degree which will cause the round to fail to function in ac-... [Pg.445]

Note Accdg to Marshall (Ref 2, p 414), the densities of Amer permissible expls detd by this method varied from 0.84 to 1.54 those of European expls from 0.68 to 1.30 w) Shaking Density (USBurMines). The apparatus consists of a piece of Shelby tube V/a ID, 1 5/8 1 OD, and 12 inside length with a pipe cap on one end a frame which allows the tube to be raised just 2" thereby obtg a constant height of drop to shake the tube and a small plunger which measures the dqnh to which the... [Pg.502]
