Fragment Impact Characterization of Melt-Cast and PBX Explosives

Published: Jan 1, 2002
Abstract
In this paper we report new experimental results on the shock to detonation transition characteristics of the melt‐cast explosive RDX/TNT 60:40, and two PBX explosives, one containing RDX, and the other HMX, with HTPB as the binder in both cases. These experiments employed right‐regular cylindrical steel projectiles impacting charges covered by either steel or aluminium barrier plates. Response curves were generated giving the threshold impact...
