Because of complications associated with temperature heterogeneities in shocked metal powders, time-resolved radiation pyrometer measurements of shock temperatures in powders with particle sizes greater than a few tens of microns cannot be made under normal laboratory conditions with uniaxial loading durations limited to about one microsecond. Fortunately, for highly porous, reactive powders, the difference between shock and postshock temperature is negligible. For loading conditions similar to those that have yielded reaction products in recovery experiments, there is no evidence of any chemical reaction in a coarse (-325 mesh) nickel/aluminum powder mixture within the first 6 μs of shock arrival, based on constraints on postshock temperatures provided by thermal radiation measurements. This result is in contrast to that for a micron-sized nickel/aluminum mixture, for which there is evidence of significant reaction on a time scale of 100 ns under similar shock loading conditions.
