The compatibility of thermobaric mixtures based on isopropyl nitrate (IPN), magnesium (Mg) and aluminium (Al) powders are researched by microcalorimetry. Calculated (theoretical) and measured (experimental) curves of compatibility of the examined samples are presented. The heat of combustion of the IPN/ Mg composition is determined by adiabatic calorimetry.

 

Key words: thermobaric mixture, isopropyl nitrate, metal powder, magnesium, aluminum, microcalorimetry, adiabatic calorimetry, compatibility.
