摘要:
A HIGH EXPLOSIVE COMPOSITION COMPRISING AT LEAST ONE LIQUID EXPLOSIVE NITRIC ESTER GELATINIZED BY MEANS OF NITROCELLULOSE AND AT LEAST 1% BY WEIGHT OF AT LEAST ONE LOWER ALIPHATIC GLYCOL SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL DIETHYLENE GLYCOL PROPYLENE GLYCOL AND DIPROPYLENE GLYCOL SAID GLYCOL HAVING DISSOLVED THEREIN AN OXYGEN-SUPPLYING SALT AND BEING THICKENED BY A MATERIAL SELECTED FROM THE HYDROXYETHYL AND HYDROXYPROPYL ETHERS OF POLYSACCHARIDES AND MIXTURES THEREOF.
摘要:
A METHOD IS PROVIDED FOR THE VERY RAPID GELLING OF CISHYDROXYLATED POLYMERS, SUCH AS GALACTOMANNAS, IN AN AQUEOUS MEDIUM BY ADDING THERETO A SELECTED CROSSLINKING AGENT CONSISTING OF THE PRODUCT OBTAINED BY THE ADMIXTURE OF A SOLUBLE TRIVALENT ANTIMONY COMPOUND AND A SOLUBLE HEXAVALENT CHROMIUM COMPOUND IN A POLAR LIQUID COMPRISING AT LEAST 10% BY WEIGHT OF A GLYCOLIC SUBSTANCE HAVING FREE CIS-HEYDROXYL GROUPS THEREIN. THE METHOD IS PARTICULARLY USEFUL IN GELLING A THICKENED AQUEOUS EXPOSIVE SLURRY BUT IS ALSO USEFUL IN A WIDE RANGE OF COATING OR PRESERVATIVE APPLICATIONS.
