Test Report for Detonation Velocity Measurements
Description
Test report for detonation velocity measurements. A series of tests were conducted to determine reaction rate and general behavior of aluminum (AL) and magnesium (MG) powder mixtures (metalized explosives) with Bullseye double-base smokeless propellant. Given the indeterminate sensitivity and unknown potential behavior of the mixed material, mixing and subsequent charge placement was performed remotely. The test setup and results are summarized within this document.
