A Comparison of Celcon/Acrylic-150 and Celcon/Silk Bag Materials on the Ballistic Characteristics of 81mm Ammunition,

Abstract

A series of experiments were conducted at APG to compare celcon/acrylic and celcon/silk bag materials for 81MM ammunition. A statistical analysis of the results shows that lower velocities and pressures are obtained with the celcon/acrylic material. The tests also show that the celcon/acrylic material leaves no significant residue.
