ABSTRACT:
A blasting composition comprising a mixture of inorganic nitrate and a sensitizer containing at least 30 weight percent of an alkyl ether of Binor-S has substantially more explosive force than an equal volumetric amount of a mixture of ammonium nitrate and diesel fuel. The latter is used in large quantities as a commercial explosive. The sensitizer containing the ether is a liquid having a low pour point, high density and high net volumetric heat of combustion compared to diesel fuel.
