Abstract
RDX/HMX based Plastic Bonded Explosives (PBXs) with epoxy resin as a binder have been formulated and studied in detail for their explosive, mechanical and thermal properties. The effect of pressure on the moulding powder has also been optimized to achieve maximum loading density and compression strength. Further, these PBXs have been analysed for homogeneity and coating of binder over RDX/HMX crystals. The data suggest that epoxy resin based PBXs have higher loading density, higher mechanical strength and higher velocity of detonation (VOD) as compared to polyurethane based PBXs.
