Abstract

The compressive behavior of pressing sintering Zr-W multifunctional energetic structural material was tested at different strain rates by using material testing machine and split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) system. A constant strain rate dynamic loading can be obtained by combination of attaching a strain gauge directly to the sample and employing the pulse shaping technique. Test results show that Zr-W material appears good linear elasticity both under quasi-static and dynamic loading, and its elastic modulus is about 186 GPa, not so sensitive to stain rate effect. The Zr-W material presents high-strength and brittle which is attributed to the W2Zr sintering product phase, and it can fragment, react and rapidly release high amounts of energy under strong impacting load. The results show that the Zr-W material has high energy, and its dynamic failure strain and failure strength increase with the strain rate increasing.
