Thermal stability of LX-09 chemical reactivity testing. Final report

Several CRT tests were performed with LX-09 using sample containers obtained from LLL. These containers were used to help eliminate differences that were inherent in the design of the various sample containers used by the different laboratories. Initial experiments showed poor agreement in test data between LLL and Pantex containers until Pantex containers were fitted with different valves. Later experiments show no significant differences in test data between the two types of containers after the modification. Fillers of stainless steel (used in LLL containers) and of glass (used in Pantex containers) were interchanged with-out significant differences in results. Results of tests with PBX 9404 and with LX-04-1 are included
