Abstract

We determined the spall strength of hafnium heated by a loading shock wave to thousands of degrees and subjected to transformations into denser polymorphic modifications. To achieve this goal, the following tasks were solved. The pressure profiles at the interface between the sample and soft buffer material in the spall experiments with flat, one-dimensional loading are measured. The equations of state of three polymorphic modifications of hafnium are constructed in the pressure range up to 100 GPa. The thermodynamic states of hafnium were calculated under the conditions of the performed experiments, which, together with the results of measurements of pressure profiles, made it possible to determine the spall strength of hafnium heated in a cycle of shock compression–unloading. The spall strength of hafnium was –4(1) GPa at a temperature of 1680(380) K. The spall experiments were mathematically simulated in the framework of a one-dimensional hydrocode.
