Indugel AV-800 Blasting Agent

It is an explosive - hydrogel type blasting agent based on ammonium nitrate with a composition of gelling substances, which prevent the segregation of the components present in the mixture into water. Requires a Pentofex multiplier for initiation. Easily submersible in water and with high specific energy. It presents great safety in handling due to its low sensitivity, friction and impact. Does not contain nitroglycerin. Used in open pit mining (soft to semi-hard rocks) and in mining, with the presence of water.
