Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of explosives and relates to small component migration in explosive grain, in particular to a nondestructive characterization method for small component particle migration distribution of explosives based on μCT. BACKGROUND

[0002] In order to improve the performance of explosives, small components such as binders, plasticizers and desensitizers need to be added on the basis of energetic ingredients to improve mechanical properties, process properties and safety performance. In the long-term storage process, small molecular components with low melting point in the explosive formula will produce phase change and dissolution due to temperature and aging effect, and will produce "surface-seeking" migration under the push of concentration difference or pressure difference, and crystal precipitation and oil seepage may occur on the surface of the explosive grain. Due to the migration and seepage of small components of explosives, pores may be produced in the interior of the explosive grain, making the explosive locally loose and brittle, affecting the structural integrity and mechanical properties of the explosive grain, and the migration and seepage of desensitizer small components will also cause the sensitization of explosives and increase the sensitivity, thereby increasing the use risk. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out research on the characterization method of component migration to provide technical support for safety failure analysis, formula design, safe and reliable use and the like of explosive charging.

[0003] At present, the migration distribution of small components in the interior of explosive grain in the field of explosives is mainly characterized by destruction, that is, the explosive grain in different aging processes is radially sliced or turned into powder with a certain thickness, and the content of each range is analyzed by using HPLC and other technical means, and then the migration distribution change is reconstructed according to the content of different parts. The disadvantages of this destructive migration distribution characterization method are as follows: 1. The same explosive grain cannot be subjected to complete cycle migration distribution research because the explosive grain is destroyed; 2. The sampling points are few due to the slicing or turning with a certain thickness, resulting in low distribution detection precision; 3. The distribution change path or other details of the component particles cannot be analyzed because only the whole analysis of the sliced pieces or turned powder can be carried out. Therefore, a nondestructive characterization method for the migration distribution of small component particles in the interior of explosive grain is needed. SUMMARY

[0029] It should be noted that all the basic methods in the present application, if not specially stated, all use the known basic methods in the prior art.

[0030] μCT, full name micro-focus industrial CT, can realize non-destructive testing of internal components of propellant column based on gray value. The principle is as follows: the sample is fixed on the sample table which can rotate 360 degrees or 180 degrees, and is rotated and scanned at a set step angle; during scanning, the energy of X-rays passing through the test piece is attenuated, and the attenuated signal is received by the detector and the projection image is obtained; then according to the relationship between the linear attenuation coefficient of each point of the test piece and the X-rays, the CT gray image is converted in proportion, the image threshold segmentation method is used to divide the pixel set in the image according to the gray level, and each subset obtained forms a region corresponding to the real scene. μCT not only can obtain truly isotropic volume images with a spatial resolution of several microns, but also has a relatively fast image acquisition speed, which can meet the requirements of modern high-precision and fast testing. At present, μCT in the field of explosives mainly uses porosity to realize the characterization of the damage of propellant due to moisture loss and the internal damage evolution law, and there is no report on the method of using μCT to characterize the migration distribution of small components in explosive column.

According to the position data obtained under different temperature, humidity and time conditions, the migration distribution characterization model of the particles in the component under different conditions is fitted, and the distribution rules such as migration rate and trajectory of the component under different conditions are inferred. Finally, the overall migration distribution characteristics of all the components prone to migration are summarized, laying a foundation for the migration mechanism research.

[0044] Preferably, in step four, the number of components prone to migration is N'(N ′ ∈[1,N]) and the number of particles of a component n with modeling characteristics is M'(M ′ ∈[1,M]);The aging test includes T' temperature test points, H' humidity test points and t' time test points.

[0045] Preferably, in step four, the migration distribution characterization model of the particle m in the component n under different aging temperature, humidity and time conditions is:

[0050] A coordinate system is established as shown in Figure 1 , with the line where the initial test position of the propellant grain is located as the Z axis, the bottom surface of the propellant grain as the X-Y plane, and the line passing through the center point of the propellant grain as the Y axis, and the line perpendicular to the Y axis and the Z axis as the X axis.

[0051] Step two, determine the position of a single particle:

In the a image containing particle m, the image a x is selected as the target image, and the center position of the particle area in the a x image is taken as the position L of the particle in the propellant grain. n-m .

[0056] Step 302, different conditions:

[0057] Step 30201, different temperatures:

[0058] When the thermal aging temperature T ∈ [T1, T2], the position of the mth particle of component n is , where T1 and T2 are the upper and lower limit values of the thermal aging temperature range, respectively.

[0059] Step 30202, different humidity:

[0060] When the thermal aging humidity H ∈ [h1, h2], the position of the mth particle of component n is , where h1 and h2 are the upper and lower limit values of the thermal aging humidity range, respectively.

[0061] Step 30203, different time:

[0063] Step four, construct a migration distribution characterization model:

[0064] For N'(N'∈[1,N]) components prone to migration and M'(M'∈[1,M]) particles with different depths and different volume size characteristics are modeled. T' temperature test points, H' humidity test points, t' time test points can get (N'×M'×T'×H'×t') position data (including initial state position), according to the above position data, the migration distribution representation model of the mth particle in the nth component under different conditions can be fitted:
