Research abstract
General Sciences, Inc (GSI) proposes several intermetallics and other highly energetic concepts as well as structures which can eventually satisfy the desirable Structural Reactive Materials (SRM) specifications. The exothermicity of these candidates can exceed 1.5kcal/g, the density of 8g/cc, and strength that will satisfy future munition requirements. Pertinent studies are proposed in materials/system synthesis, relevant physical/mechanical property measurements, and ballistic testing. Analysis of the above data will provide a downselect for future studies and reactive case fabrication options.
