ON MATERIALS' CAPABILITY TO DETONATE

摘要

The idea of how to determine the composition of mixtures of liquid explosives with inert diluents and solutions of solid explosives in inert solvents which are still capable to detonate has been introduced. It has been demonstrated experimentally with nitromethane/acetone mixtures and diethanolnitramindinitrat/acetonitril solutions that the most weak composition still capable to detonate is that which detonation's CJ pressure is still larger than the minimum shock pressure necessary to initiate the detonation. Considerations have been proposed on conditions at which so called gasless detonation could be realized theoretically.
