Shock Response of Several Plastic Bonded Explosives

Gerrit Sutherland, K. D. Ashwell, Jean H. O’Connor, R. N. Baker, E. R. Lemar

Abstract

Multiple in situ manganin gauge experiments were performed on explosive compositions IRX-1, IRX-3A, PBXN-111 (PBXW-115), and PBXN-110 (PBXW-113). For most explosives, stress-time profiles show substantial reaction. These profiles are compared to those measured in other explosives and plans are discussed for future reactive rate modeling involving these explosives.
