The purpose of this project is to purchase a dielectric spectroscope which can be used to study amorphous and melt cast explosives. Specifically, relaxation times are critical, as they can be used to predict the aging properties of various phases produced. Training and maintenance support are expected. The system needs to be capable of rapid analysis of amorphous and melt cast explosives as they undergo melt.
The dielectric spectroscope should be capable of the following.
Frequency Range of (3μHz to 20MHz).
Temperature Range of -100°C to 250°C
Bias, ±40V, 70mA
fast sampling rate (6ms/point)
