The invention relates to a
tungsten-based
delay powder for a
detonator and a use of the
tungsten-based
delay powder. The formula of the
tungsten-based
delay powder mainly comprises
barium chromate, tungsten powder and
potassium perchlorate, and as the circumstances may require, extra
calcium fluoride and diatomite can be added; the components of the formula are manually mixed together in a certain ratio, the mixture is further mixed for 4 hours in a
ball mill, and then the mixed delay powder is put in a lead tube having the
diameter of phi10 to phi16, next, the steps of sleeving, rolling, drawing and lead
cutting are carried out, and finally, the tungsten-based delay powder for the
detonator can be obtained; the tungsten-based delay powder is further prepared into a cylinder core having the
diameter of 2mm, a middle layer made of pure lead is arranged to sleeve the cylinder core, an outer layer made of a lead-
antimony alloy is arranged to cover the middle layer, and then a one-section lead delay element for the
detonator is formed. The properties of the tungsten-based delay powder are capable of meeting the
national standard requirements, the
assembly efficiency of the delay powder is high, and after being launched, the delay powder is capable of creates the economic benefit of billions of Yuan for an enterprise; besides, the
delay time interval problem of the delay powder is solved, and the safety is improved.
