Slurry Explosives

Untitled (2).png

Slurry explosive or water gel represents a modern innovation in the field of explosives, gradually replacing conventional alternatives. These formulations consist of one or more solid components suspended within a gel or semi-solid matrix. Typically, they are crafted using a water-based solution containing an inorganic oxidizer such as ammonium nitrate (which can be combined with calcium nitrate or sodium) blended with a natural polysaccharide like guar gum. The infusion of fuel and oil into the gel matrix results in the formation of slurry

SAFETY

  1. Should be kept away from flame & excessive heat

  2. Should be handled and stored with care.

  3. Do not subject product to heavy impact or friction

  4. During charging ensure that cartridges are charged in a continuous column in the bore hole

ADVANTAGES

  1. Cost efficient, easy to use and safe

  2. They provide high degree of safety from Mechanical Impact friction

  3. They have exceptional bore hole coupling as they have high loading density in a bore hole thus enabling them to transfer maximum energy

  4. Better water resistance than ANFO

Each type of slurry explosive is identified by its sensitizing agent and other distinguishing factors. We offer a wide range of slurry explosives with customizable physical and detonation properties, which are determined by the specific types and particle sizes of the component ingredients.
