Abstract: | The thermal behaviors of three pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) base polymer bonded explosives (PBX), Detasheet A (EL506A,
red) and Datasheet C (EL506C, yellow-green) that supply by DuPont Co., PBXN-301 were investigated using thermal techniques
in this work. The thermal properties of PETN base polymer bonded explosives, such as vacuum thermal stability (VTS), time
to ignition, auto-ignition and shelf life of PBX that calculation from Arrhenius equation by the length of time for 5% decomposition
were also examined. By comparing the thermal properties, VTS and shelf life of PETN base polymer bonded explosives, the application
and storage of Datasheet C (EL506C, yellow-green) should be considered carefully, owing to the ingredients of Datasheet C
(EL506 C, yellow-green) containing nitrocellulose. Binders that using in this study seems play no significant effect on the
decomposition for polymer bonded explosives, because the decomposition temperature of binders is always higher than that of
PETN. |
