Compatibilty studies of explosives using MAKRODTA 550-EX apparatus

The most common method for compatibility determination of explosives is so called Reactivity Test performed using Vacuum Stability Test device. This method does not allow neither gaining of detailed information about the origins of possible incompatibilities of studied mixtures nor determination of volatile substances. For the above mentioned reasons utilization of device that would be able to measure samples of tens or even hundreds of miligrams appears as a good idea. One of such devices is DTA 550-Ex developed at our site.
