Abstract

Abstract: An emulsion is a multiphase dispersion system in which one or more liquids are dispersed in the form of particles in another immiscible liquid. Emulsion method has been applied for preparation of binder system via oil in water (O/W) emulsions. The formulation contains: 40 g 12 % a solution of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) in water, 15 g 7.5 % a solution of Viton A (vinylidene hexafluoropropene copolymer) in ethyl acetate, 0.25 g sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and 0.25 g Tween‐80.The emulsion as a binder system, sub‐micro CL‐20 (prepared by the ball milling method) as the body explosives to prepared CL‐20 based explosive ink (CL‐20 88 % concentration). Deposition of explosive inks via DIW technology and its properties were characterized. The results showed that the composite has fewer internal defects and low impact sensitivity, the crystal type has no change, critical detonation size is around 1×0.17 mm and detonation velocity is 8079 m/s.
