Permitted Explosives

Introduction

Permitted Explosives manufactured by IDL are classified under three categories - Godyne (P1), Permadyne (P3) and Pentadyna (P5). These are exceptionally safe aluminised cap sensitive explosives with a low detonation temperature, complimented by insensitivity to friction and heat. There is a great reduction in noxious fumes normally associated with nitroglycerine. Their compatibility with water and consistency offer improved hole filling characteristics. Like all other permitted explosives, they must be used with approved type of detonators. These explosives are sensitive to No. 6 detonator with a density of 1.05 to 1.16 gms / cc and a detonation velocity of 3050 to 3650 mtrs. / sec.

Godyne has been approved by DGMS* for use in gassy coal mines / seams of Degree I for blasting in coal after it has been mid-cut, under-cut or over-cut Maximum charge per hole should not exceed 800 gms.

Permadyne has been approved by DGMS* for use in gassy coal mines / seams of Degree I+II for blasting in coal after it has been mid-cut, under-cut or over-cut. Maximum charge per hole should not exceed 1000 gms.

Pentadyne has been approved by DGMS* for use in gassy coal mines / seams of Degree I+II for blasting in coal off the solid. Maximum charge per hole should not exceed 1000 gms.

* denotes 'Directorate General of Mines Safety, Government of India'.
