The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium

Energetic materials are currently manufactured using methods such as casting, which can only produce certain geometries. Additive manufacturing enables more flexible fabrication and the potential for improved material consistency. Additive manufacturing has transformed many industries, but has only recently been applied to the manufacturing of energetic materials. This paper describes the development of two processes to apply additive manufacturing methods to energetic materials. Method one applies a fused deposition modelling approach (FDM). 5 µm aluminum powder and PVDF were mixed and made into filaments using a Filabot Original filament extruder. Energetic filaments were created composed of 90:10, 80:20, and 75:25 …
