Abstract
Understanding the impact-induced ignition properties and energy release behavior of polymer-bonded explosives (PBXs) is critical for the safety of explosive systems. In this study, a new impact test component was designed using a light gas gun to quantify the ignition mechanism and chemical reaction of micro-damaged PBXs under different inertial loading conditions. A constitutive model was developed to describe the mechanical-thermal-chemical response of the PBXs. This model was employed to further investigate the correlation between microcracks, debonding, hot spots, and chemical reactions. The results show that the stress state of the material is not uniformly distributed due to the micro-inhomogeneities and structural defects of PBXs. The shear friction of the microcracks contributes to localized hot spots, thereby inducing ignition. The critical loading condition for ignition is the length of the steel pillar is 32 mm. The damage and hotspot temperatures of the anterior lateral and posterior lateral regions are greater than those of other locations. The ignition response is accentuated with longer steel pillars, resulting in a more violent release of energy.
期刊介绍:
Polymer Testing focuses on the testing, analysis and characterization of polymer materials, including both synthetic and natural or biobased polymers. Novel testing methods and the testing of novel polymeric materials in bulk, solution and dispersion is covered. In addition, we welcome the submission of the testing of polymeric materials for a wide range of applications and industrial products as well as nanoscale characterization.
The scope includes but is not limited to the following main topics:
Novel testing methods and Chemical analysis
• mechanical, thermal, electrical, chemical, imaging, spectroscopy, scattering and rheology
Physical properties and behaviour of novel polymer systems
• nanoscale properties, morphology, transport properties
Degradation and recycling of polymeric materials when combined with novel testing or characterization methods
• degradation, biodegradation, ageing and fire retardancy
Modelling and Simulation work will be only considered when it is linked to new or previously published experimental results.
