Investigation of detonation characteristics and sensitivity of dadne-based phlegmatized explosives

摘要

Phlegmatized DADNE (1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethylene, FOX-7) and its mixture with HMX were prepared and their detonation properties, i.e., the detonation velocity, detonation pressure, acceleration ability and detonation energy were investigated. The sensitivity on mechanical stimuli (friction, impact and shock wave) were determined. Thermal stability and compatibility of components were also tested. This work continues the investigation of new compositions for low vulnerability ammunition.
