Abstract: Surface Treatment Technologies, Inc. (ST2) proposes to use its patented process to fabricate reactive shaped charge warhead liner that will produce enhanced damage in concrete and rock targets. The phase I effort will focus on selecting the composition for the liner material and optimizing the microstructure. The fabricated liners will be fired to evaluate jet formation. In the Phase II effort the process will be used to fabricate blanks for full size shaped charge liners. In addition to working with the Navy, ST2 will work with oil and gas and demolition companies to develop commercial applications for the patented liner material.
Benefits: The liner materials fabricated in the proposed effort will generate more damage in rock and concrete than convention aluminum liners.
