Detonating fuse consists of a core
The core of a detonating fuse is the central part that initiates the explosion
The core is typically made of a highly reactive material, such as a mixture of powdered metals or chemicals
The core is surrounded by a protective casing to prevent accidental ignition
Examples of core materials include lead azide, mercury fulminate, or PETN
The VOD of detonating fuse is the velocity at which the detonation wave travels along the fuse.
VOD stands for Velocity of Detonation.
It is a measure of how fast the detonation wave propagates through the fuse.
The VOD of a detonating fuse depends on factors such as the type of explosive used and the composition of the fuse.
A higher VOD means the detonation wave travels faster, resulting in a quicker explosion.

The gelling agent is used to increase the viscosity of the explosive mixture.
Common thickening agents used in slurry explosives include guar gum, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and xanthan gum.
The gelling agent helps to suspend solid particles in the explosive mixture, allowing for better distribution and control of the explosi...
The VOD of emulsion explosive refers to its Velocity of Detonation.
VOD is a measure of how fast the explosive reaction propagates through the material.
It is an important characteristic for determining the efficiency and safety of explosive materials.
Higher VOD explosives are typically used for blasting hard rock formations.
Lower VOD explosives are used in situations where a controlled and less destructive explosion is
The output capacity of the dragline with 4.5 to 7.5 cu.m is in million cu.m per year.
The output capacity of the dragline depends on the size of the bucket it uses.
A larger bucket size allows for a higher output capacity.
The dragline's efficiency and operating conditions also affect its output capacity.
The output capacity can be calculated by considering the average number of cycles per hour and the bucket fill factor.
