SpeedMixer Processing of Energetic Materials

Abstract

Energetic materials present numerous processing challenges. Physical, thermal, and electrical insults can result in material degradation or catastrophic events. SpeedMixers offer unique mixing capabilities that enable safe and rapid combination of formulation constituents. This report will outline SpeedMixer functions, safe operation protocols, and numerous energetic formulations successfully processed with the SpeedMixer.
