SpexLite Solid Air for Explosives: EPS, EPP and PVDC

---

 SPEX•LITE® 5510 Solid Air is compatible with Diesel Fuel, opening up possibilities and cost reduction opportunities as a lightweight fill for explosives.

 SPEX•LITE® Solid Air is up to 95% air content, which provides many unique advantages as a lightweight additive in emulsion systems.

As an ultra efficient lightweight volume filler, SPEX•LITE® Solid Air's volume cost saves explosives customers material and freight costs in almost every instance.

With a bulk density as low as ~0.75 pounds per cubic foot (pcf),  SPEX•LITE® 6503 EPS Solid Air will significantly decrease the cost and weight of industrial explosive systems.

SPEX•LITE® Solid Air may reduce the amount of liquid potentially absorbed in an emulsion system, which can lead to improved blast results.

SPEX•LITE® Solid Air has a rounded shape, which promotes flow of an emulsion system when it's being pumped.

Case studies using SpexLite Solid Air demonstrate that less holes are required per blast, saving both time and money as a lightweight fill for explosives companies.

SpexLite can be conveniently stored regardless of weather conditions and SpexLite can be handled either pneumatically or mechanically.

Spex•Lite® 5510 (black bead) is compatible with diesel fuel, whereas EPS / polystyrene (white) has compatibility challenges as a Lightweight Fill for Diesel Fuel Explosives. Whichever you need, SpexLite has both!

Traditional ANFO prills are hazardous both to ship and to handle. SpexLite Solid Air does not require hazardous shipping and handling surcharges.

Conventional Prills provide warnings of potential build-up on shipping and storage containers. SpexLite Lightweight Fill doesn't contribute to traditional residue buildup.

Conventional ANFO prills weigh ~45 - 55 pcf. SpexLite Solid Air EPS, EPP and PVDC products weigh between ~0.75 - 10 pcf and they do not tend to break down during transit.
