Plastic bonded explosives (PBX) are known as the most modern types of explosives which posses excellent safety and mechanical characteristics in addition to their high energy values and long term thermal stability. PBX's are used in propulsion technology as linear cutting charges for separation between different stages of propulsion and for self-destruction during improper function of the propulsion unit. In this work , the explosive properties of PBXs including detonation velocity, detonatation heat, workability, brisance and sensitivity to different types of impulses were studied. Some of these properties were measured and calculated, moreover a comparison between the obtained results was made.
