Explosion temperature - the maximum temperature to which the products of chemical reactions occurring during an explosion are heated.
The explosion temperature depends on the composition of the explosive (BB), the parameters of the explosive charge (dimensions, density, humidity, etc.) and the blasting conditions (presence of a shell, method of initiation, etc.).
The explosion temperature for certain conditions can be calculated or determined experimentally. For experimental determination using optical color methods.
The temperature of an explosion of industrial explosives for mining is in the range of 2,700–4,200 ° C, and safety explosives containing heat-absorbing additives are in the range of 900–2500 ° C.
