Comparative Assessment of Energetic Plasticizers Including NFPEG3N3 in a GAP/HMX Formulation: Mechanics, Stability, Combustion, and Performance

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 269-276, February 2026.
ABSTRACT We examine the new energetic plasticizer 3‐(2‐(2‐(2‐azidoethoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)‐4‐nitro‐1,2,5‐oxadiazole (NFPEG3N3), three reference compounds (BDNPA/F, Bu‐NENA, and DNDA‐57), and a plasticizer‐free control in a fixed HMX/GAP composite. NFPEG3N3 provides the strongest low‐temperature properties, yielding the lowest formulation glass transition ...

Research on the Aging Properties of HTPB Propellant under Vacuum

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2023
Abstract The space environment has high vacuum, rapid temperature alternations and other extreme conditions, which can affect the energy, ignition rate and ignition performance of solid propellants in the space environment. In order to obtain the space aging performance of HTPB propellant, this paper investigates the aging performance of

Rheological Characterization of Low and High‐Solids‐Loaded Suspensions Using Capillary Rheometry

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 144-156, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Controlled extrusion of viscous liquids with suspended solids depends critically on rheology. The rheology of a binder (9:1 mass ratio of cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) to triacetin with a 55 wt.% diethyl ketone balance) loaded with dilute (0–15 wt.%) and concentrated (≥50 wt.%) granulated sugar loadings from three particle size ...

Coating of High Melting Explosive Particles by Nitrotriazolone to Formulate Composite Nanoparticles by Spray Flash Evaporation

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, Volume 50, Issue 11-12, Page 32-39, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The balance between performance and safety of high explosives is at the heart of the current studies, and new ways of combining safety and performance have hence been elaborated. This study focuses on a mixture of 3‐nitro‐1,2,4‐triazol‐5‐one (NTO) and octogen (high melting explosive [HMX]).
