Experimental study on internal explosion of thermobaric explosives containing metastable intermolecular composite (MIC) materials

Abstract In order to study the influence of metastable intermolecular composite (MIC) materials on internal implosion properties thermobaric explosive, calorimetric bomb and closed chamber were used measure detonation heat, quasi-static pressure energy impulse five explosive formulations containing different MIC materials. Compared with traditional aluminized warm compressed explosives, release characteristics output analyzed. The results show that formula material has lower heat value in air vacuum than Al powder; former are higher those latter, indicating can improve explosives. be guide formulation design
