## Abstract Lead has for a long time not been employed in explosive cladding because its velocity of sound (c = 1250 m/s) is very low compared to the detonation velocities of conventional explosives (vD β 3000 m/s). I t is shown that by using a carbonite explosive, which has a detonation velocity o
