Abstract

The mixing of the ingredients of energetic materials can be a challenge when the volume fraction of the solids approaches the maximum packing fraction of the solid phase or when there are ingredients which impart gel-like characteristics. In both 170cases, the flow and deformation behavior of the energetic formulation becomes viscoplastic. Viscoplasticity imparts wall slip, which makes further mixing difficult. The fundamentals of the typical rheological behavior of energetic suspensions and gels are covered in Chapter 8.
