    Abstract:

    ResoDyn Acoustic Mixers Incorporation developed a mixing technique known as Resonant Acoustic® Mixing (RAM) in the early 21st century. This technology uses acoustic waves to create multiple micro-mixing zones within a material rather than the bulk mixing generated by traditional impeller or rotor agitation or planetary mixer. RAM technology can be used for the large-scale production of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and bulk powder mixing. For energetic materials, RAM is considered to have potential advantages over traditional high-shear processing methods (e.g. planetary mixing), including shorter time scales, improved mix homogeneity, reduced waste output, absence of moving parts (an ignition source), and the potential to mix higher viscosity, ‘unmixable’ compositions (compared to planetary mixers). RAM has become the processing technology of choice in the development and production of propellants, explosives, and pyrotechnics. A summary of applications of RAM in the field of energetic materials, including the formation of co-crystal explosives and nano thermites and the processing of propellants and PBXs, is detailly overviewed in this text.
