Abstract

See full text

A method to charge a container with an energetic mix is disclosed. This method includes the following steps: (a) adding a plurality of particulate energetic mix constituents and a binder to the container; and (b) mixing the plurality of energetic mix constituents utilizing a non-contact mixer to form a homogeneous mixture within the container, and curing the binder to solidify the homogeneous mixture and bind the homogeneous mixture to the container. The container may be a liner or pre-form intended for insertion into a device, or may form a portion of the device itself, such as an aft portion of a rocket motor or casing for an explosive device. Because the resonant mixer does not have a moving impeller or other component that contacts the energetic mix and the container is not reused, there is minimal decontamination required between each mix and the manufacturer may rapidly commence assembling the next device, rather than clean-up and recertification.
