Complex fabrication procedures and heterogeneous components contribute to the varied microstructures of PBX materials, including voids or pores, cracks, material interfaces, and micro-strains.

Under complex temperature variations, the irreversible thermal expansion of polymer-bonded explosives (PBXs) containing 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene (TATB) leads to diminished shape stability.
