Friability 시험에 의한 둔감화약의 기계적 충격 감도 평가 연구 = A study on friability test to assess the mechanical impact sensitivity of insensitive explosives

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

We recently developed a friability test procedure, which will be used as one of substance tests for Extremely Insensitive Detonating Substances(EIDSs) in Test Series 7 of the United Nations. This test was intended to assess the susceptibility of insensitive explosives to the break-up as high strain rate and subsequent ignition characteristics of the deformed material. We designed an air gun system using the hydro code simulation. The projectile velocities of the gun were in good agreement with those predicted by the hydro code with an inert material. Three different types of explosives, melt castable Comp B, castable plastic bonded explosives(PBXs), and pressable PBXs were tested during the development of the test procedure. Two tastable PBXs, i.e. DXD-09 and DXD-10, which are currently under development as candidate formulations of EIDS were classified as EIDS, since test results with these formulations were far better than the criterion of the UN Test Series 7.
