LOW
ENVIRONMENT IMPACT ROCK AND CONCRETE BREAKING USING NONEX EXPLOSIVES
NoneX break rock and concrete with greater control due to
minimal fly rock, low vibration, reduced noise and requires
only localized clearance of equipment and personal.
How does it work?
The NoneX technology is based on a non-detonating chemical
compound enclosed in a cartridge, which reacts very quickly when
ignited to produce high volumes of harmless gas, mainly consisting
of nitrogen, carbon dioxide and steam.
When the cartridge is sealed in a drill hole, the gas generated
by the ignition of the propellant enters into the micro-fractures
created from the percussive drilling process and into the natural
fractures and planes of weakness of the rock to produce a shearing
of the rock or concrete often called splitting.
I s
NoneX an Explosive?
NoneX cartridges have been determined by the United Nations
Classification to be a hazard class UN1.4S which is the same classification
as used for small arms ammunition.
Will it break all sizes of rock and concrete?
NoneX cartridges are available in sizes from 2g to 500g allowing
operators the ability to handle all sizes of jobs - from the smallest
of rocks to large steel reinforced concrete or bedrock.
Is it waterproof?
NoneX is waterproof and can be used in wet holes or in underwater
conditions.
