Description
The Energetics Rheology Laboratory houses a variety of instruments and equipment for the characterization of energetic materials, which include propellants, explosives, pyrotechnics, precursor materials and non-energetic materials such as epoxies, composites and polymeric resins. All instruments are remotely controlled from a centralized control room via CCD surveillance cameras and computerized monitoring systems. The ERL is used to conduct various experiments and analyses of energetic and non-energetic materials. The ERL uses specialized software and data analyses programs, making the ERL a technically competent and unique site for performing energetic materials characterizations.
