Obtaining of Detonation Diamonds from Individual Explosives

  • Published:
Combustion, Explosion, and Shock Waves Aims and scope

Abstract

A method of obtaining detonation nanodiamonds from tetryl by means of blasting the latter in a water shell with the explosive/water mass ratio of 1/(10–14) is developed. The proposed method ensures the yield of the target product in the amount of 6–7 wt.% of the initial mass of the reagent with the content of nanodiamonds in the resultant batch mixture equal to 57\(\,\pm\,\)6 wt.%. It is demonstrated that the use of individual explosives offers some advantages over the known multicomponent mixtures in terms of cost efficiency and safety of the charge preparation process.
