Synopsis
A practical guide to analyzing permissible explosives. This bulletin explains how scientists determine composition and safety characteristics so field samples can be compared with tested standards.
This nonfiction guide lays out the methods used by the Bureau of Mines to analyze explosives that are considered permissible for coal mining work. It covers why these explosives are tested, how their exact composition is determined, and what observers can expect from the chemical examination of samples.
- Learn how moisture, sulfur, and other ingredients are measured in explosives and their extracts.
- Explore techniques for separating nitrosubstitution compounds from nitroglycerin and for handling ether extracts.
- See real-world apparatus and procedures used for sample preparation, extraction, and analysis.
- Understand how results are interpreted to verify compliance with permissible-explosive classifications.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an exhaustive analysis of permissible explosives in use today and methodology for their creation and analysis by the US Bureau of Mines. These explosives, which differ significantly from standard blasting types, are ideal for mining and similar applications. The author provides a comprehensive guide to their manufacture and testing, detailing methods for determining a variety of chemical and physical characteristics. The book discusses the Bureau's standards and classification methods for permissible explosives and the unique chemical analysis required for these materials, which are more susceptible to temperature variation and must not ignite flammable gases. This book is a valuable resource for manufacturers, chemists, and safety inspectors involved in the production and use of permissible explosives.
