This report documents a study on the feasibility of using sub-micron size hollow plastic spheres as an energy absorbing medium in the fluid of a compressible fluid recoil mechanism for field artillery. The study identifies the properties of a polymer which theoretically will increase the compressibility of a recoil fluid. (Author)
