ABSTRACT Improvised explosive may be as primitive as a fuel and oxidizer mixture; yet not all fuel-oxidizer mixtures are explosive. Predicting explosive potential from laboratory-scale tests is desirable to screen a large matrix of potential threats in varying concentrations. Herein the properties of various fuel/oxidizer mixtures were measured at small scale (2 g) with bomb calorimetry and on large scale (5 kg) with high speed photography for detonation velocity and with piezoelectric pressure probes for TNT air blast equivalence. Potassium nitrate (KN), potassium chlorate (KC), potassium permanganate (KMnO4), potassium iodate (KIO3), ammonium nitrate (AN), and ammonium perchlorate (AP) were prepared with sucrose (Su) and aluminum (Al) fuel. Results were compared to each other as well as predictions from Cheetah thermochemical code.

燃料氧化剂混合物：实验室和现场研究

摘要 简易炸药可能与燃料和氧化剂的混合物一样原始；然而，并非所有燃料-氧化剂混合物都具有爆炸性。从实验室规模的测试中预测爆炸潜力对于筛选不同浓度的潜在威胁的大型矩阵是可取的。在本文中，各种燃料/氧化剂混合物的性质是用弹量热法在小规模（2 克）和大规模（5 公斤）用高速摄影测量爆轰速度和用压电压力探头测量 TNT 空气爆炸等效性的。用蔗糖 (Su) 和铝 (Al) 燃料制备硝酸钾 (KN)、氯酸钾 (KC)、高锰酸钾 (KMnO4)、碘酸钾 (KIO3)、硝酸铵 (AN) 和高氯酸铵 (AP)。结果相互比较以及来自猎豹热化学代码的预测。
