Effect of Fluoroalcohol Chain Extension Modified HTPB Binder on the Combustion Performance of Aluminized Propellants

open access: yesCrystals
To enhance both the mechanical properties of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) binder and the combustion efficiency of aluminized propellants, 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-octafluoro-1,6-hexanediol (OFHD) was employed as a chain extender to impart mechanical ...

Hydroxy-terminated polyether binders for composite rocket propellants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Propellants based on cross-linked Hydroxy Terminated PolyEther (HTPE) binders are being used as alternatives to Hydroxy Terminated PolyButadiene (HTPB) compositions. HTPE propellants have similar mechanical properties to HTPB propellants but they give

Low-Temperature Mesoscopic Mechanical Damage of AP/Al/HTPB Composite Propellants

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering
To investigate the mechanical damage of solid propellants under low-temperature conditions, an equivalent modeling approach was employed to establish a mesoscopic particle–embedded model of the hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) propellant ...

Numerical Conversion Method for the Dynamic Storage Modulus and Relaxation Modulus of Hydroxy-Terminated Polybutadiene (HTPB) Propellants. [PDF]

open access: yesPolymers (Basel), 2022
As a typical viscoelastic material, solid propellants have a large difference in mechanical properties under static and dynamic loading. This variability is manifested in the difference in values of the relaxation modulus and dynamic modulus, which serve

A Viscometric study of mixtures with Hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) and short chain diols used in the formulations of solid composite propellants

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
Hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) is widely used in the formulations of solid propellants used in rocket motors. Furthermore, in general, chain extenders and short chain diols, such as 1,4-butanediol and 1,2-propanediol, can also be used in ...

A whole life assessment of extruded double base propellants

open access: yes, 2013
© Cranfield UniversityThe manufacturing process for solventless extruded double base propellants involves a number of rolling and reworking stages. Throughout these processes a decrease in weight average molecular weight was observed, this was attributed

Evolution of structural damage of solid composite propellants under slow heating and effect on combustion characteristics

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
Composite propellants are used to fabricate solid motors for space vehicles. The fundamental factor that affects motor safety is the structural damage in the propellant owing to slow heating in an abnormal storage or service environment.
