Instrumented Pneumatic-Impact Tester
Abstract
Pneumatic-impact tester is small pressure chamber equipped with specimen holder and optical port. Device designed to test susceptibility of polymeric material to ignition by "pneumatic impact" in high-pressure gaseous oxygen. Used to determine differences among susceptibilities to ignition of different materials and of different batches of nominally same material proposed for use in systems containing pressurized oxygen. Also used to show characteristics of ignition and combustion.
