THE INVESTIGATION OF STABILIZATION OF SILICON SOL FOR WATER-CONTAINING EXPLOSIVES

The factors influencing the durability of inorganic thickener for slurry explosives based on silica obtained by acid treatment of nepheline are briefly described. The results of the investigation into silicone sol stabilization are given. This investigation has allowed formulating the composition and working out the methods for obtaining modified silicon sol and improved slurry explosive on its basis. Illustr. - 1, bibliography - 6.
