TATB performance and sensitivity. Progress report, July--September 1975
Progress during July to October 1975 in research on chemical explosives is reported. Gap tests conducted on three batches of Teledyne-produced TATB revealed a wide sensitivity range. Impurities are probably responsible for the variation. LLL Blend 6 was tested at three densities to provide a check on the data for LLL Blend 2. Blend 6 was slightly more sensitive than Blend 2. Routine tests of RX-03-BB Blends 6 and 7 revealed nothing unusual. Better results were obtained in the hot (68 C) wedge tests on RX-03-BB but more improvement is needed. (auth)
