Brisance, Correlation with Chemical Structure

Concerning brisance and impetus, L H (Ref 1, pp 421-22 Ref 2, p 267) suggest that whether the lead block test is a measure of impetus or of an uncertain combination of impetus and brisance, while a subject of contention, is not of great importance in view of the tendency of impetus and brisance to vary concomitantly. They consider, however, that it is probably safer to use the ballistic mortar values in direct comparison of available energy [Pg.150]

Brisance, Correlation with Properties Other Than Chemical. Accdg to remarks of C.G. Dunkle made during proceedings of the 4thONRSympDeton (1965), p 13, brisance defined as. shattering power has been thought to depend on quantity of energy evolved and the speed of its liberation. [Pg.150]

Attempts have been made to correlate brisance with deton velocity, energy and pressure, without much more success than by the various small scale tests, such as sand test, small scale push test etc (See also Vol 1 of Encycl, pp VIII-IX and Vol 2, pp B299-B300) [Pg.150]
