  • Patent number: 4754703
    Abstract: A loop portion of a bus wire connected to an electric blasting device is passed through a first magnetic core together with a first loop-like wire, and the first loop-like wire is further passed through a second magnetic core provided in a detonator. The detonator includes a second loop-like wire which is passed through the second magnetic core, an electric bridge connected to the second loop-like wire and a fuse head provided around the electric bridge. When a pulsatory high frequency current is supplied to the bus wire, high frequency currents are induced in the first and second loop-like wires by electromagnetic induction. Then the current flows through the electric bridge of the detonator to fire the primer explosive.

  • Patent number: 4753990
    Abstract: An ethylene-acrylic acid ester copolymer can be easily grafted in a high graft efficiency with a peroxy group-containing block copolymer consisting of segments of copolymer A, which is a copolymer of a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer or its mixture with a radically copolymerizable monomer, with a radically copolymerizable peroxycarbonate, and segments of (co)polymer B, which is different from copolymer A in the monomer composition and does not contain a monomer unit of the radically copolymerizable peroxycarbonate. The grafted ethylene-acrylic acid ester copolymer can be effectively used as a compatibilizing agent in a polymer blend of polyolefin with styrene (co)polymer, as an emulsifying agent in an emulsion of high polymer, or as an adhesive at the interface of polyolefin and styrene (co)polymer.
