Effect of Hydroxyl‐Terminated Polybutadiene Grade on Rheology and Settling of High‐Solids Mixtures of Mock Propellants

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The most common binder used in composite rocket propellants is based on the pre‐polymer hydroxyl‐terminated polybutadiene (HTPB). It has been shown to have excellent mechanical properties and a long life once crosslinked, and studies have examined the kinetics of crosslinking and pot life of energetic formulations with HTPB.

First Report of blaCTX‐M‐15 in a Marine Thermotolerant Enterobacter Isolate From Bangladesh: Genomic Insights Into Halotolerance and Antimicrobial Resistance

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Marine‐derived Enterobacter kobei, exhibiting thermotolerance and salt tolerance, is ESBL‐producing and harbors AMR genes (blaCTX‐M‐15, qnrS1) and mobile genetic elements, indicating environmental spread of antimicrobial resistance. ABSTRACT Marine ecosystems are becoming important reservoirs for antimicrobial resistance (AMR). However, genomic data on

Boosting Decomposition and Combustion of TKX‐50 and HTPB/TKX‐50 Propellants With NH2‐MIL‐88B(Fe) MOF

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Dihydroxylammonium 5,5′‐bistetrazole‐1,1′‐diolate (TKX‐50) is a promising energetic material that possesses both exceptional energy density and low sensitivity. Nevertheless, its application is hindered by incomplete pyrolysis during combustion or explosion. Various strategies, including eutectic formation, composite preparation, and catalysis,

Purification and Properties of Polyvinyl Nitrate and Its Compatibility With Solid Oxidizers

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, Volume 51, Issue 8, Page 1224-1234, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Polyvinyl nitrate (PVN) is a nitrate‐ester energetic binder that can be produced directly from polyvinyl alcohol—a cheap commodity feedstock—thereby offering potential cost and supply‐chain advantages over binders based on nitrocellulose and other specialty polymers.
