Comparison of the properties of plastic bonded explosives comprising polyglycerols made of technical and pharmaceutical glycerol as binders

摘要

Tech. and pharmaceutical grade glycerols were converted to polyglycerols on NaOH and used as binders for hexogen-based plastic - bonded explosives studied then for d., detonation velocity and friction and impact sensitivities. The properties of explosives did not depend on the glycerol quality. The best properties showed the explosive containing 20% of the binder.
