The objective of this SBIR effort will be to investigate the feasibility of significantly reducing the firing energy required to reliably initiate a 1.6 Hazard Class Extremely Insensitive Detonating Substance directly with an Exploding Foil Initiator (EFI). RSI Proposed to do a trade-off study leading to several conceptual EFI designs. These designs will be tested to analyze performance to determine the feasibility and optimum configuration for energy reduction in a 1.6 Hazard Class Detonator. This work is expected to facilitate the benefits that a 1.6 Hazard Class offers to the safety, transportation and storage of in-line explosive munitions. Additionally, several key technology questions will be answered, providing a basis for guidance on future research efforts.
