Testing is done to discover potential handling problems for either newly synthesized materials of unknown behavior, or materials that have been stored for long periods of time.<\/p>\n<p>Friction of explosives between hard surfaces is one of the most frequent causes of accidental explosions. Determination of friction sensitivity is a necessary part of characterization of explosives.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201cBAM&#8221; Small-Scale Friction Test, and the methods used to determine the friction sensitivity pertinent to handling energetic materials are routinely performed at the UTEC laboratory facility for specific clients and under \u2018standard\u2019 as well as \u2018user-defined\u2019 testing conditions and protocol.<\/p>\n<p>Want to learn more?
