Synthesis of propellant grade HHTPB by hydrogenation of HTPB using Pd-activated charcoal as catalyst
To derive more performance from the conventional composite propellant based on hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) and ammonium perchlorate (AP), it is envisaged to hydrogenate HTPB, which increases the H/C (hydrogen to carbon ratio) of the base ...

Decomposition in HTPB bonded HMX followed by heat generation rate and chemiluminescence [PDF]
The decomposition in HTPB bonded HMX was characterized with two highly sensitive methods: heat flow microcalorimetry (HFMC) and Chemiluminescence (CL). The material is stabilized with a phenolic antioxidant. The heat generation (HFMC) rate was determined
