Emulsified explosives refer to a type of industrial explosive that uses emulsification technology to uniformly disperse droplets of oxidant salt aqueous solution in an oil phase continuous medium containing dispersed bubbles or hollow glass microspheres, forming a water in oil (W/O) latex like aqueous explosive. Emulsion explosive is a type of water containing explosive.
Emulsion explosives were a new product developed in the 1970s. In 1969, Blabm in the United States first comprehensively expounded the technology of emulsion explosives. The earliest emulsion explosives were non detonator sensitive and had to be detonated with the help of intermediate detonators. Later, with the deepening of research on emulsion explosives, emulsion explosives developed later also had detonator sensitivity, good water resistance, good explosive performance, low mechanical sensitivity, and good safety. At the same time, their cost was lower than that of water-based explosives.
At present, emulsion explosives are widely used both domestically and internationally. However, emulsion explosives have high viscosity, generally ranging from 30000 to 100000 centipedes, making transportation very difficult. In accordance with safety regulations, emulsion explosive vehicles that require on-site mixing and configuration in civil explosive construction use Robosida rotary pumps to achieve mixing and unloading transportation functions.
