Modeling the effects of aluminum and ammonium perchlorate

The presence of aluminum (Al) with and without ammonium perchlorate (AP) allows the subsequent burning for longer and sustained reactions of enhanced blast explosives. The modeling of reaction rate laws for three explosives with varied amounts of Al, AP, RDX, and HMX is reported. Get price

Chapter 6 HEALTH HAZARD ASSESSMENTS

number of blast repetitions determine the potential for primary blast injury.5(p242) In this instance, blast injury was controlled by restricting the number of rounds (blast repetitions) fired each day by each member of the howitzer crew. Hydrogen chloride is a combustion product of ammonium perchlorate–based propellant used in the MLRS missile. Get price

Exactly What Is Tannerite?

Nov 13, 2018Ammonium nitrate and ammonium perchlorate however, are both oxidizer and fuel. The ammonium acts as a fuel while the nitrate/perchlorate portion as the oxidizer. Both of these compounds are explosive on their own, but typically stable enough that a high power blast cap or primary detonant is required to initiate them. Get price

Additive manufacturing of ammonium perchlorate composite

Jan 01, 2019The system was used to print ammonium perchlorate (AP) composite propellants at 85% solids loading using hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) and a UV-curable polyurethane binder. The change in HTPB propellant viscosity with time after mixing was measured and the microstructure of the strands was evaluated with X-ray tomography scans. Get price

Most Amazing Explosions Caught on Film

However, the Nevada plant responsible for producing ammonium perchlorate, part of the solid state rocket fuel, continued to produce as before and the rocket fuel started to pile up. The accident investigators found that when this NASA supplying plant ran out of aluminum storage bins for fuel they switched to HDPE (a type of plastic) drums. Get price

echniques for Controlling Exothermic Decomposition of

grade ammonium perchlorate exposed to temperatures of 350-3900 C. It was found that ammonium perchlorate (AP) in which this first exothermic peak was eliminated could be prepared by heating the propellant grade AP to 365 -390C for several minutes and allowing it to cool. Furthermore, this Get price

A Comprehensive Look at The 1988 PEPCON Explosion In

Jan 10, 2018Ammonium perchlorate: Approximately 4,000 tons of an oxidizer used in solid fuel rocket boosters, ammonium perchlorate, were stored at the facility after PEPCON was allowed to continue to produce the material without any regulations for storage or shipping. Used in military weapons and the Space Shuttle, the amounts in storage grew as the United States suspended the Space Get price
