Gap sensitivity tests continued on RX-03-BB. Results on materials which had been thermally cycled were consistent with density changes induced by the cycling. Two wedge tests were conducted with dry machined pure TATB at 1.84 g/cm/sup 3/. Sensitivity was essentially equivalent to RX-03-BB at 1.81 g/cm/sup 3/. Several cyclinder tests were conducted with RX-03-BB and pure TATB. Results are discussed.
