Show affiliationsAn optical investigation was performed to investigate the formation of carbon in pseudo-micro-aluminized hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine explosive powder explosion. X-ray diffraction analyses indicated that carbon was one of the major ingredients in the residue. Instantaneous emission spectra of C2, AlO, CO and CO2 showed that micro-aluminium promotes the ejected carbon at 3159 ± 50 K temperature and 6–8 MPa blast pressure. The convincing reason is that excess Al creates an O-poor environment.
