detonation velocity

It has a detonation velocity of approximately 7,400 metres per second.

These block type charges guarantee the highest detonation velocity.

Octanitrocubane has a detonation velocity of 10,100 m/s, making it the fastest known explosive.

Detonation velocity is dependent on loading density (c), charge diameter, and grain size.

For optimal penetration, a high explosive with a high detonation velocity and pressure is normally chosen.

For maximum amperage, the plates must remain parallel as they accelerate towards each other; high detonation velocity is required.

The detonation velocity of the mixture silver acetylide:silver nitrate is 3460 m/s.

IPN is a low-sensitivity explosive, with a detonation velocity of approximately 5400 m/s.

This is a list of the detonation velocities at specified (typically, the highest practical) density of various explosive compounds.

Infinite-diameter detonation velocity.

These are based on nitroguanidine and high explosives of the RDX (detonation velocity 8,750 m/s) type.

This pressure is the source of the damage and is proportional to the explosive density and the square of the detonation velocity.

Despite their brisance and detonation velocity being comparable with TNT, panclastites have virtually no use today.

As a simple approximate equation, the physical value of is usually very close to 1/3 of the detonation velocity of the explosive material for standard explosives.

Propellants mixtures containing nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin (detonation velocity 7,700 m/s) as explosive propellant ingredients are known as double-base powder.

Sometimes this is desirable either to enhance the handling properties of an explosive (e.g. when munitions are filled in factories) or to reduce its sensitivity, or detonation velocity.

During the 1930s triple-base propellant containing nitrocellulose, nitroglycerin, and a substantial quantity of nitroguanidine (detonation velocity 8,200 m/s) as explosive propellant ingredients was developed.

Fluoropolymers are advantageous as binders due to their high density (yielding high detonation velocity) and inert chemical behavior (yielding long shelf stability and low aging).

Detonation velocities are frequently very high, which can improve the detonation synchronicity across the area of a tertiary charge with a low detonation velocity.

Currently, propellants using nitrocellulose (detonation velocity 7,300 m/s) (typically an ether-alcohol colloid of nitrocellulose) as the sole explosive propellant ingredient are described as single-base powder.

Though it has a lower detonation velocity (approximately 7,600 m/s) than Astrolite G, the addition of the aluminium increases both its density and brisance, moderately increasing its overall effectiveness.

Explosive velocity, also known as detonation velocity or velocity of detonation (VoD), is the velocity at which the shock wave front travels through a detonated explosive.

It melts at 232 C and decomposes at 250 C. It is not flammable and is an extremely low sensitivity explosive; however, its detonation velocity is high.

Current-generation high explosive compounds such as PETN and RDX can feature comparable detonation velocities and brisance to Astrolite G.

The detonation velocities increased by as much as 1000 meters per second in one case, and even in the worst performing oxide salt, the velocity increased by 300 meter per second.
