The Synergistic Effect of Fe-Based MOFs and HTPB on AP Decomposition in Solid Propellants

Solids
Many factors and their mutual interaction between catalysts and AP/HTPB composite solid propellant induce the complexity in the combustion. Among them, we prepared two Fe-based MOFs as catalysts and investigated their catalytic effects and mechanism on ...

Ultrasonically Accelerated Nitration of Hydroxyl-Terminated Polybutadiene: Process Efficiency and Product Characterization

Eng
Hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) is widely studied and the most used prepolymer for the binder system of composite solid propellants. A suitable functionalization of HTPB with energetic groups greatly improves the performance of the propellant ...
