Solid-state extrusion of energetic materials

摘要

Extrusion is widely used in the processing of energetic materials as the most productive technology. In the traditional meaning, extrusion is the technology of obtaining products by forcing a viscous melt of a material or a thick paste through a die. Pyrotechnics is a particular class of energetic materials, which is processing only in the solid-phase state at the temperatures below the melting temperature of the binder component. The paper shows the principal possibility of a solid-phase extrusion of pyrotechnic materials and the influence of this method on their characteristics.
