This patented booster sensitive explosive combines watergel with a major percentage of energetic propellant. Slurran 430 is proper for use in submarine blasting and extremely cold temperature applications. Detagel Continuous Presplit is a continuous detonator sensitive product designed for presplitting applications and highwall control. This exclusive design ensures a steady and consistent detonation velocity throughout the presplit line which produces a straight wall cut to the highest degree allowed by geology. Detagel is a detonator sensitive watergel developed for a use as a primer for ANFO and for use as a column load in small diameter holes.
Detonation produces a high level of brisance with attendant heaving effect.
Detagel is classified as Fume Class 1 by the U. S. Bureau of Mines. It contains no nitroglycerine. Its high aluminum content produces exceptionally high shattering and heaving effect. Slurran 915 is most effective when used in wet conditions as a column load for small diameter holes. Before the two components are mixed, they are not subject to the stringent transportation and storage regulation applied to high explosives.
