Axial symmetry explosive compaction was investigated for W-Ti powders at different mass ratios of explosive to mixed powders (E/M). The micrographs near the axis of the specimens were taken by the light microscope. Numerical simulation of explosive compaction was carried out to recur LS-DYNA3D program. Pressure cloud pictures of the set-up for explosive compaction, pressure time-history curve of the certain elements of the axis of the sample and the radial displacement of the certain nodes of the center cut of it were protracted. Influences of E/M on specimen density and the formation of mach-hole were analyzed. The results show that the specimens with high density over 98% (T. D) can be obtained by explosive compaction of powders. E/M is an important parameter that affects the specimen quality. With increasing E/M, the density of the specimens increases firstly, and then the mach-hole appears that debases the compact quality. The prediction results of numerical simulation show a good agreement with the experimental measurements.
