Cocrystal explosive can effectively improve the physical and chemical properties of explosive and contributed to new unique properties of cocrystal explosive. Based on cocrystal principle, a few recrystallization explosives of LLM-105 were prepared using solvent/non-solvent technique. The prepared samples were analyzed by IR spectroscopy. The results showed that cocrystals such as LLM-105/ HNIW, LLM-105/HMX and LLM-105/RDX can be prepared. Melting point and density of the cocrytals above changed little. It can be inferred the cocrystal explosive will have better energy and their application performances will not reduce obviously.
The formation of linear explosion formed penetrator(LEFP) from linear shaped charge detonated from one end point was studied both theoretically and experimentally, and a numerical simulation was also carried out. By decomposing the detonation velocity vector into spherical and slide components, the theoretical model described the tip velocity change of LEFP. The numerical model illustrated the formation of LEFP and the tip velocity agreed with the theoretical model. The validation of the theoretical and numerical models was verified by experiment, in which steel targets were used to show the effect of LEFP. The results showed that average tip velocity was 2658.4 m/s at 100 mm to the charge mouth. The theoretical and numerical velocity values and distribution curve were very close to the experimental ones. This work may further develop the theory of LEFP and linear shaped charge.
Linear explosively formed penetrator (LEFP) is an optimal combination of linear cutting sword and conical shaped charge but is completely different with those two above. Initiating manner of LEFP is one of the most important factors that can affect its performance obviously. LEFP forming mechanisms of linear shaped charge initiated from the mid-point were studied with combined method of theoretical analysis, experiments and numerical simulation. Liner movement driven by the detonation wave action was analyzed as a three-dimensional issue and a synthetical model of liner movement was established. The model were verified by the penetrating experiments with the LEFP initiated from midpoint under stand-off which is 5 times distance of the LEFP caliber size. Formation processes of LEFP were described through numerical simulation and the simulation results were in concordance with those of experiments.
PTFE/Al reactive material was prepared via a hot pressed sintering process and comparative experiments were conveyed considering heating rate, sintering temperature and heat preservation time. The internal microstructure of the material was investigated using metallurgical microscope and stereomicroscope. From the investigation the influence of process parameters of hot pressed sintering on the properties of the material were deduced, and the analysis was verified by testing the impact initiation property with drop hammer method. The density of the material was measured according to the Archimedean principle. and the results showed that the best operating conditions of these three factors are 80°C/h, 365°C, and 0.5h, This new method has a higher effectively (short process time) and need lower operation conditions (low sintering temperature and pressure) comparing with the traditional cold sintering process.
Red copper has been widely used in shaped charge liner because of its good ductility. Red copper penetrator is the Linear Explosively Formed Penetrator (LEFP) with some length and energy which has been produced when linear red copper shaped charge liner is overturned under the effect of detonation production. Compared with some ordinary jets sword, it has some characteristics such as the broad range of stand-off, big cratering and obvious rear effect and may meet with many operating requirements in different environment. It has been discovered that the bifurcate fracture phenomenon of red copper penetrator will occur with the increase of stand-off when it is initiated on edge midpoint in its property test experiment, and results in the separating cratering on the target which influences its effect. The Propagation characteristics of detonation wave in explosive and the effect of detonation wave on red copper shaped charge liner are analyzed, and then the velocity change obtained by each element and the velocity relationship between each element are studied. So it can be drawn a conclusion that the velocity gradient is the main factor which results in the bifurcate fracture phenomenon of red copper penetrator. In addition, the theoretic analysis model of the bifurcate fracture in red copper penetrator is built. On the basis of modeling analysis and calculation, the criterion of the occurring bifurcate fracture and the measures avoiding the bifurcate fracture are put forward. The results agree well with that of experiments.
