Abstract

Study of shock-wave sensitivity of explosives under various temperatures is of great significance for correct analysis of safe application of different industrial processes, technologies, as well as for correct understanding of explosion initiation mechanism in (explosives). Currently, the influence of low, (−100 °C…−200 °C) temperatures on explosive sensitivity to weak shock waves is poorly studied. This paper gives experimental results on the influence of low temperatures on the sensitivity of HMX—based explosives to weak shock-waves. In the present paper an attempt is made to experimentally determine dependence of HMX—based explosive sensitivity to weak shock waves on temperatures. The original technique of the experiment is presented in the report.
