Effect of Mechanical Heterogeneity on the Structural Integrity of HTPB Propellant Grain [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials, 2023
To investigate the structural effects of the mechanical heterogeneity of Hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) propellant grain under ignition pressurization, a gradient finite element method was proposed to evaluate its structural integrity. The heterogeneous mechanical properties of the propellant grain were constructed and assessed.

Study on Creep Mechanical Properties of HTPB Solid Propellant. [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials (Basel)
Solid rocket propellants based on hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB), in which HTPB acts as the polymeric binder and fuel matrix, are widely used in aerospace propulsion. During storage, transport, and service, these composite energetic materials are exposed to sustained mechanical loads as well as environmental variations, which may induce time ...
