DOE Hazard Classification for Insensitive High Explosives (IHE)

Abstract

The DOE has adopted a hazard classification of IHE and IHE subassembly based on the premise of no probability of initiation and proposed a test protocol for that classification based on an in depth understanding of the hazards involved and the response of the energetic material to relevant stimuli.
