The invention discloses a method for producing ecological primary explosive - basic bismuth(III) salt of 5,5′-bis-azotetrazole and its using in ecological mixture for primer compositions of ammunition.

A method can include forming a mixture of an explosive and a thermally conductive material; disposing at least a portion of the mixture in a chamber of a capsule; and at least partially sealing the chamber.

Embodiments of the present invention include a method for preparing and applying a slurry mixture to a bridge wire initiator which involves a slurry mixture that is relatively safer for a user to handle and in which the method is relatively less complex and shorter in duration for a user to prepare and apply the slurry mixture to the bridge wire initiator.

The present disclosure relates to a trunkline delay detonator and a blast-triggering device using the same. In the blast-triggering device, a trunkline delay detonator is inserted into a connector in such a manner that a plurality of shock tubes connected to a detonator for initiating an explosive are interposed between the connector and the trunkline delay detonator, so that an explosion signal is applied to the shock tubes by detonation of the trunkline delay detonator. In the blasting detonator, close contact between the outer surface of the trunkline delay detonator and the shock tubes is improved, whereby energy lost in an explosion is reduced and an explosion signal is stably and uniformly applied to the shock tubes by using powder which has a weak explosive power and is relatively insensitive compared to conventional powders.

According to an aspect, the present embodiments may be associated with a device and method of using an initiator including a body configured for receiving at least one explosive including barium 5-nitriminotetrazolate (BAX). According to a further aspect, the body of the initiator is configured for receiving at least two layers of explosive. In this embodiment, the layers of explosive include a primary explosive of the barium 5-nitriminotetrazolate (BAX) and a secondary explosive includes 2,6-Bis(picrylamino)-3,5-dinitropyridine (PYX) and/or Hexanitrostilbene (HNS).

A detonation transfer assembly is disclosed. A detonation transfer assembly may comprise an external casing comprising an input end and an output end axially opposite the input end, an explosive column spanning axially inside the external casing, a primary explosive disposed within the explosive column, and a secondary explosive disposed within the explosive column axially between the primary explosive and the output end. The primary explosive and/or the secondary explosive may comprise a thermally insensitive initiation material that resists at least one of detonation or thermal degradation in response to temperature increase rate of 3.3 C. per hour over at least twenty hours.
