| Abstract | Emulsion explosives are extensively used in the construction and mining business. The physical consistency of emulsions can range from a stiff, putty-like substance to a fluid, pumpable product, depending on the choice of fuels and process [1]. Emulsions which are the most recent generation of commercial explosives, are a safe, cost-effective and high performance alternative to conventional nitroglycerine and slurry explosives. Their high velocity of detonation and exceptional water resistance offer superior rock breaking properties and wider usage on surface or underground. |
