Abstract
For the launch safety problem of the typical CL-20-based high detonation velocity pressed explosive (C-1, 94.5% CL-20+5.5% additive), the impact response characteristics of the explosive were studied by a large-scale hammer test with 400 kg, which has an impact loading curve similar to the loading characteristics of artillery chamber pressure. Meanwhile, the improved stress rate characterization method, the lower limit method, and the drop height method were used to characterize the drop hammer impact response characteristics of the explosive, and compared with the same kind of pressed explosives JO-8 and JH-2. The improved stress rate characterization method is obtained by improving the data processing process based on existing criteria and weakening the sensitivity of the original criterion formula to oscillatory waveforms. The measured stress curves and characterization parameters of the bottom of the three pressed explosives under different drop heights are obtained by tests, and the impact sensitivity differences of the explosives and influence factors of the impact sensitivity of C-1 are discussed. The results show that the improved stress rate characterization method has certain effectiveness and universality for characterizing the impact sensitivity of explosives. Meanwhile, the improved stress rate characterization method is consistent with other methods in reflecting the law. The drop height of C-1 (H50) is 1.0 m, which is 62.50% and 50.00% of JO-8 and JH-2, respectively; the peak stress of the backseat corresponding to non-detonation (σ0) is 748.90 MPa, which is 85.42% and 64.33% of JO-8 and JH-2, respectively; the safety stress rate parameter (C0) is 344 GPa2/s, which is 45.87% and 39.14% of JO-8 and JH-2, respectively. The molecular structure of CL-20, the mechanical properties, and the thermal-chemical characteristics of the C-1 explosive cylinder are the main factors that make its impact sensitivity higher than JO-8 and JH-2. The research results can provide a reference for the application and design calculation of CL-20-based high detonation velocity pressed explosives in a high overload environment.
