Review of Paste Explosives (PEX)

Review of Paste Explosives (PEX) In the early 1970s PEX were being developed in order to produce energetic compounds with a toothpaste‐like consistency so that the PEX could be moved into position when arming the warhead. In the late 1990s development work was conducted on PEX for the filling of small‐volume microdevices such as microactuators. More recently Cranfield University has just begun research into the development of SPEX. This review outlines the developments in high explosive pastes and concludes with future developments in PEX. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics Wiley

Abstract

In the early 1970s PEX were being developed in order to produce energetic compounds with a toothpaste‐like consistency so that the PEX could be moved into position when arming the warhead. In the late 1990s development work was conducted on PEX for the filling of small‐volume microdevices such as microactuators. More recently Cranfield University has just begun research into the development of SPEX. This review outlines the developments in high explosive pastes and concludes with future developments in PEX.
