| 20100229751 | Structurally Sound Reactive Materials - The present inventions provide methods of manufacturing methods for case metallic materials for munitions that have high enthalpic energy release and controlled fragmentation and breakup enabling fragment speeds up to twice what is otherwise possible in explosively driven metal systems, and munitions made by such methods. Embodiments of the invention involve the thixotropic processing of energetic materials such as aluminum together with high density materials such as tantalum or tungsten to achieve material microstructures with a bulk density equivalent to steel, but with the energy release potential of materials such as finely dispersed aluminum powders. Such methods of mixing and blending of high energy and high density materials can provide a microstructure that has large density and shock impedance differences over length scales of 10-100 microns, resulting in enhanced materials fragmentation in the shock or brisant loading regime, incipient melting at the lower melting point constituents, and additional enhancement of fragmentation in the gas-dynamic expansion phase of munitions breakup. Additionally, the present inventions provide a range of surface and near-surface processing methods to enhance spall and ejecta from conventional munitions systems, enhancing munition breakup and reactivity as well. | 09-16-2010 |
