Plane impact response of PBX 9501 and its components below 2 GPa
The Hugoniot equation of state was measured for PBX 9501, the binder, and estane below 2 GPa using a light-gas gun facility. Time-resolved wave profiles were also obtained for these materials as well as for HMX single crystals in a state of uniaxial strain. The dynamic strength of PBX 9501 was measured at high strain rates in both compression and tension. In addition, elastic moduli were obtained from measurements of longitudinal and shear sound speeds.
