TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
TITAN® 1000 G PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
 TITAN 1000 G is an unsensitized bulk emulsion matrix
Unsensitized Gassable Bulk Emulsion Matrix specifically formulated to be sensitized during loading at the borehole using Dyno
 Nobel chemical gassing technology. TITAN 1000 G, Dyno Nobel’s high performance,
 booster sensitive emulsion explosive can be used alone in 65 mm (2-1/2 in) and larger
 SDS boreholes or in larger boreholes when used in an emulsion/ANFO blend. Chemical
 Properties #1052
 gassing can vary the density from 1.10 and 1.30 g/cc. In addition, the percentage of
 TITAN 1000 G can vary to deliver explosive performance that best matches specific
 blasting requirements. Refer to the data table at right for the physical properties and
