Shock compression of carbon tetrachloride and hexane solutions

In this publication, we report the results of experimental investigation in to shock compression of solutions of CCl4 and C6H14 taken in the weight rat io of 50/50 and 70/30 in the pressure range from 10 to 25 GPa. Certain poin ts of the Hugoniots, brightness temperatures of shock fronts, and acoustic velocities behind the shock front are determined. Acoustic velocities in pu re hexane are evaluated. The data obtained are compared with the results of calculations under the assumption of additivity of specific volumes and in ternal energies of the components.
