Erratum: Explosive Mixtures for Explosive Welding of Thin Foils: Part 2. RDX-Baking Soda Mixtures

Sub-Nanogram Detection of RDX Explosive by Monoclonal Antibodies

Polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies were raised to protein carrier molecules haptenized with RDX, a major component of many plastic explosives including Semtex. Sera from immunized mice detected RDX protein conjugates in standard ELISA. Clonally purified monoclonal antibodies had detection limits in the sub-ng/mL range for underivatized RDX in competition ELISA. The monoclonal antibodies are n...

A new approach to predict of mechanical properties at the interface of Aluminium/Copper explosive cladding by explosive scarf welding

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to produce scarf joint through explosive welding process (EXW). The scarf weld is a process in which the final bond interface is oblique. With applying the explosive welding technique, this joint can create a metallic bond between similar or dissimilar metals. In this study, chamfered end of aluminum and copper plates were joined explosively and named scar...

Subaqueous explosive eruption and welding of pyroclastic deposits.

Silicic tuffs infilling an ancient submarine caldera, at Mineral King in California, show microscopic fabrics indicative of welding of glass shards and pumice at temperatures >500 degrees C. The occurrence indicates that subaqueous explosive eruption and emplacement of pyroclastic materials can occur without substantial admixture of the ambient water, which would cause chilling. Intracaldera pr...

Thermobimetals Mechanical Properties Produced by Explosive Welding with Rolling

We used explosive welding with rolling to produce tliermobimetals on the basis of beryllium bronze and alloys of nickel. It gave us possibility to obtain magnetic and 11011magnetic tliermobilnetals possessi~lg high pllysical and mechanical propel-ties.
