A study of the adhesive properties of explosive fillers and polymer binders that form polymer bonded explosives (PBXs) using contact experiments on idealised geometry with atomic force microscope (AFM) and Johnson-Kendall-Roberts (JKR) experiments. Interpretation using both analytical theories and finite-element modelling is being applied to the experimental results to extract the adhesive parameters of the materials.
