Hydroxy-terminated polyether binders for composite rocket propellants [PDF]
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
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]
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 whole life assessment of extruded double base propellants
© 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

Development of a Solid, Low-Smoke Rocket Propellant – Smoke Generation Intensity Tests Using a Laser and Photodiode Setup [PDF]
The work completed and discussed in this paper was to determine the level of smoke generation intensity in a selection of solid rocket propellants developed to minimise the level of generated smoke.
