front face open, in the tube and is packed tightly on all sides with coal
dust. An incandescent spiral is placed in the cartridge opening; if the
material is difficult to ignite (e.g. inverse salt-pair permissibles) the
spiral is covered with a flammable igniter mixture. The tube is then
closed by a perforated plate. The parameter measured is the minimum
hole diameter at which the initiated deflagration arrives at the bottom
of the cartridge.
In a modification of the method two cartridges placed coaxially one an
top of the other are tested.
Aurol
T-Stoff; Ingolin
Concentrated (88–86%) hydrogen peroxide. It is employed in liquid
fuel rocket engines as W Oxidizer or, after catalytic decomposition, as
W Monergol. For its explosive properties, see Haeuseler, Explosivstoffe
1, pp. 6–68 (1953).
AUSTROGEL G1/G2
Austrogel G1 and Austrogel G2 are a blasting cap sensitive gelatinous
explosives. They do not contain any nitroaromatic compounds (W DNT
or W TNT). The main ingredients are ammonium nitrate, nitroglycole
and combustibles. Austrogel G1 and G2 may be used above and
under ground. Austrogel G1 and G2 is also qualified very well as
booster charge for low sensitive explosives such as W ANFO and
other not cap sensitive explosives, and its manufactured by the Austin
Powder GmbH, Austria (formerly Dynamit Nobel Wien)

Average Burning Rate
Mittlere Abbrandgeschwindigkeit; vitesse moyenne de combustion
The arithmetic mean (statistical average) burning rate of pyrotechnic
or propellants at specific pressures and temperatures. Dimension –
length/time or mass/time.
