BASIC PRINCIPLES OF EXPLOSIVESIt is a well-known fact that matter does not vanish, rather it changes form, itchanges from liquid to gas. Many of these natural elements have a great amount ofhidden energy. Should this energy be harnessed and released, many things can beachieved if utilised process of changing this energy from one form to another can be calledan explosion. This takes place when we release this inner hidden energy in a suddenand prompt manner, to have an effect on the surrounding atmosphere. Therefore wecan say that the explosive is a prompt release of energy, but not every prompt releaseof energy is an we define the explosive compounds or mixtures as materials that have thefollowing characteristics:?
1. Enormous capability to produce these gases in a very short or instantaneous period, in order to exert pressure on the surrounding atmosphere. For scientific reasons we divide the explosive materials into the following: 1. Flammable materials, e.g. gun powder 2. Explosive materials that require detonation e.g. dynamite FACTORS AFFECTING THE ...
