Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ignition powder, in particular to a high-sensitivity moisture-proof ignition powder composition and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Currently, the mainstream detonator ignition transducer element in the market uses metal bridge wire or bridge band as the electric heating transducer element, and the bridge wire or bridge band is wrapped with sensitive initiating explosive.

[0003] When a pulse current is loaded, the metal bridge wire or bridge band generates heat and warms up, ignites the initiating explosive in contact with it to produce high-temperature flame, and then the high-temperature flame contacts the detonator booster to detonate the detonator; the initiating explosive in the mainstream transducer element uses water-based polymers such as PVA and EVA as adhesives to provide cohesion and molding capability.

[0004] However, the addition of water-based polymers reduces the sensitivity of the explosive on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is easy to absorb moisture, so an additional waterproof layer is needed to avoid the problem of moisture absorption and detonation rejection; in addition, during the drying process of the initiating explosive, air pockets and fine bubbles are easily generated inside, reducing the contact area of the explosive and the metal bridge and increasing the thermal conduction resistance, resulting in an increase in ignition delay and a certain distribution; therefore, a high-sensitivity moisture-proof ignition powder composition and a preparation method thereof are proposed to solve the above problems.
