Decomposition in HTPB bonded HMX followed by heat generation rate and chemiluminescence [PDF]
, 2018 The decomposition in HTPB bonded HMX was characterized with two highly sensitive methods: heat flow microcalorimetry (HFMC) and Chemiluminescence (CL). The material is stabilized with a phenolic antioxidant. The heat generation (HFMC) rate was determined

Modeling and rheology of HTPB based composite solid propellants
Polymer Composites, 1998 AbstractThe propellant with the minimum viscosity required for a defect‐free casting can be obtained by proper selection of the size and fractions of solid components leading to maximum packing density. Furnas' model was used to predict the particulate composition for the maximum packing density.
