Linear Correlation Between Confined Explosive Quantity and Dent Volume of an Underlying Aluminium Block Using the SSRT Setup

Abstract: The SSRT setup gives smart access to test various properties of explosive materials and requires only little substance quantities. Unlike the standardized SSRT, we studied the bulge development from the blast of different amounts of PETN (200–1300 mg). The bulge of the corresponding aluminum blocks was evaluated with the help of a profilometer (Keyence VR‐5200). This device, which measures the volume of the dents using the offset of structured light projected on the object, has allowed us to analyze the differences precisely. Despite the experimental limitations and the resulting undirected explosion direction, a throughout linear correlation between the respective amounts of PETN and the resulting dent depth could be determined. Our study thus forms an illustrative development of how the explosion behavior, represented by the dent of an aluminum block, of compressed energetic materials behaves in with increasing filling quantity, which is transferable to larger experimental setups as well as to other explosives.
