Study on the performance of emulsion explosives sensitized by an oxygen-generating M foaming agent.

ABSTRACT: To address the limitation of traditional nitrogen-sensitized emulsion explosives, which only produce a hot-spot effect without contributing energy, this study proposes an energy synergy enhancement strategy based on oxygen sensitization. By utilizing the oxygen generated from the reaction of an M foaming agent at varying concentrations to sensitize the emulsion explosives, with conventional emulsion explosives as a control group, the explosion performance was systematically evaluated through detonation velocity and air blast experiments. The influence on thermal decomposition properties was investigated via TG-DSC tests by fitting kinetic parameters. The results indicate that compared to the sodium nitrite control group, the mean detonation velocity of the M foaming agent-sensitized
