Abstract
Industrial interest in reinforced plastics, plastic-metallic and plastic-ceramic aggregates has led to a preliminary examination of the effect that shock waves have on the properties of dynamically consolidated powders. Three PVC powders were compacted explosively either in pure double polymeric mixtures, or singly with 304 stainless steel, iron or SiO2 powder. Pressures generated ranged from 3 to 9 GPa for polymeric mixtures and from 14 to 24 GPa for metallic and silica composites with PVC materials. The effect of the original particle size and density on the final properties of a compound is discussed and optimal conditions of densification and soundness are indicated, together with the potential industrial applications of these composites.
