Effect of Particle Size of RDX on Mechanical Sensitivity

Abstract: Effect of particle size of RDX on impact sensitivity and friction sensitivity is systematically studied The particle size tested ranges from 15 to 124 μm and is divided into 5 grades The impact sensitivity and friction sensitivity are characterized with 50% drop height and 50% normal pressure respectly The results show that impact and friction sensitivities of RDX decrease with the reduction of particle size of RDX The mechanism and factors of particle size affecting mechanical sensitivity are theoretically analyzed The results are significant in the research and application of explosives
