The cap sensitivity tests described here are based on the initiation of a high explosive charge by the standard detonator. The effects of the detonation of the explosive charge on a lead cylinder, steel plate, or steel tube are observed. On the basis of these effects, the conclusion about the completion of the detonation... [Pg.38]

A qualitative test of some value is to fire the explosive standing on its end on a plate of lead about 2 -5 cm thick. A strong high velocity explosive... [Pg.73]
