Gap testing of the LLL thermally conditioned specimens of RX-03-BB, Blend 2 continued with 4 groups being tested. Thus far, it has been possible to predict results fairly accurately by considering only the final density of the samples. Tests conducted on TATB aminated by an emulsion process raised questions about the correlation between density and sensitivity.
