Abstract

The results of an experimental study of shock wave (SW) attenuation in mixtures of magnesium and aluminum with solid metal oxides upon contact blasting of explosive charges are presented. Faster attenuation is found in reactive mixtures compared to homogeneous materials of similar compressibility and inert mixtures, which is related to the occurrence of fast reactions of components behind the SW front with an increase in the density and, correspondingly, unloading wave velocities.
