Non-Carcinogenic Replacements for PBNA Antioxidant in PBXN-105 and PBXN- 106 Explosives

Abstract

Explosive mixes of PBXN-105 and PBXN-106 were prepared using Cyanox 2246 and CAO-14 antioxidants in lieu of phenyl-beta-naphthylamine (PBNA). Specification tests, as well as other related tests, were performed on the system. Findings indicate either of the antioxidants are suitable replacements.
