Abstract

Detonators, such as electrical, mechanical and flame-sensitive detonators, and the production thereof, for utilization at low and high temperatures through the use of explosives with high temperature-resistant, thermoplastic materials as binder mediums. The explosive is present as a ruboff-resistant shaped member in cylindrical form or within a cup, while the primary igniting medium in the detonator housing is compressed alone or through the shaped member.
