Preliminarily results on the reaction mechanism of detonation of composite emulsion explosives sensitized by MgH 2 , which simultaneously plays the role of an energetic material, are presented. Compared to emulsion explosives sensitized by glass microspheres, emulsion explosives sensitized by magnesium hydride have a different reaction mechanism of detonation. The shock wave overpressure, specific impulse, shock wave energy, and bubble energy are all greatly increased with the use of MgH 2 , and it is noticeable that the shock wave overpressure and shock wave energy increase by 17% and 24%, respectively. In addition, emulsion explosives sensitized by MgH 2 improve significantly in terms of detonation velocity and brisance. These emulsion explosives also meet safety requirements.
