Abstract:Binders mixed with explosives to form polymer-bonded explosives (PBXs) can reduce the sensitivity of the base explosive by improving interfacial interactions. The interface formed between the binder and matrix explosive also affects the thermal conductivity. Low thermal conductivity may result in localized heat concentration inside the PBXs, causing the detonation of the explosive. To investigate the binder–explosive interfacial interactions and thermal conductivity, PBXs with polyurethane as the binder and 2,… Show more
