Effect of Water Vapor to Explosives and Their Use for Improvised Explosive Devices
Journal Title: Problemy Mechatroniki. Uzbrojenie, lotnictwo, inżynieria bezpieczeństwa - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
This report examines the stability of TNT and dinitronaphthalene and their mixtures after their thermal extraction from the shells of artillery munitions by means of water vapor and their use for improvised explosives with high power. The comparison of the baseline explosive mixture with the samples acquired after the water vapor extraction showed no significant differences in their characteristics. Similarly, each of the explosive mixture components (TNT and DNN) after the water vapor extraction, examined separately, did not show significant differences from the originalTNT and DNN characteristics.
