High explosives mixtures

When mixed with hydrocarbons in approximately stoicheiometric proportions, a sensitive highly explosive mixture is produced which needs careful handling [1,2], The use of such mixtures as rocket propellants has also been investigated [3], Explosion of only 10 g of a mixture with toluene caused 10 deaths and 20 severe injuries [4], The mixture contained excess toluene in error [5], Detonation characteristics of mixtures with benzene, toluene (and nitrobenzene) were studied [6],...

High explosive mixtures with potassium and sodium chlorates or potassium and ammonium perchlorate belong to a separate group a mixture of these salts with any combustible used in a suitable quantity will act as an explosive. 

All systems studied to date produce H2 and 02 gases together, and these bubble out as a 2 1 highly explosive mixture. Some method must be employed to separate the gases. This brings additional costs. 

Tetranitromethane. Forms highly explosive mixture with toluene.6 Uranium Hexafluoride. Vigorous interaction with toluene.7... 

Properties One of the most powerful high-explosive mixtures. 

Human poison by ingestion. Experimental poison by ingestion, intraperitoneal, and intravenous routes. Human systemic effects by skin contact cyanosis and motor activity changes. Experimental reproductive effects. An eye irritant. Mutation data reported. Mixture with nitric acid is a high explosive. Mixture with tetranitromethane is a high explosive very sensitive to sparks. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx. See also o- and p-DINITROBENZENE. 

It is highly inflammable, and bums with a bluish flame, giving on CO, and SO, its vappr forms highly explosive mixtures with sir, which detonate on contact with a glass rod heated to 250 (482 F.). Irs vapor forms a mixture with nitrogen dioxide, which, when ignited, bxums with a brilliant flame, rich in actinic raya... 

EXPLOSION and FIRE CONCERNS combustible when exposed to heat or flame reaction with sodium forms an ignitable product NFPA rating Health 3, Flammability 1, Reactivity 0 reacts violently with concentrated sulfuric acid (above 160°C) forms highly explosive mixtures with tetranitromethane may explode on standing involved in many plant scale explosions residue from vacuum distillation may explode spontaneously combustion by-products include oxides of nitrogen and carbon monoxide use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or water spray for firefighting purposes. 

Cuprous acetylide in the dry state is highly sensitive to shock, causing explosion on impact. It explodes in contact with acetylene after being warmed in air or oxygen for several hours (Mellor 1946). It forms a highly explosive mixture containing silver acetylide when mixed with silver nitrate. It ignites spontaneously with chlorine, bromine, and... 

Composition B is a high-explosive mixture with a relative effectiveness higher than that of TNT. It is also more sensitive than TNT. It is composed of RDX (59%), TNT (40%), and wax (1%). Because of its shattering power and high rate of detonation. Composition B is used as the main charge in certain models of bangalore torpedoes and shaped charges.
