摘要

An investigation was performed into the performance of emulsion explosive via studying on the storage modulus of its matrix. The experimental results show that there is a tight relationship between storage modulus and the performance of emulsion explosive because both have strong connection with droplet size. A higher G' represents a superior performance of emulsion explosive. The storage modulus was taken to investigate the effect of the nature of surfactant and continuous phase on the performance of emulsion explosive. It was found that the stronger interaction between surfactant and dispersed phase improve the performance of emulsion explosive. But, the increase of polarity of continuous phase decreased the performance of emulsion explosive.
