The shock-wave equation of state for a commerically available alumina-filled epoxy has been determined in the stress range from 0.4 to 3.7 GPa via gas-gun-impact experiments. A linear fit to the shock-velocity–particle-velocity data yields U=2.78+1.63u. This curve lies between the U-u curves for an unfilled epoxy and for an alumina-filled epoxy of higher density.
