Chemical Explosives and Rocket Propellants [PDF]
Without explosives we probably would still be riding around in horse-drawn carriages; yet when most people think of explosives, they think only of bombs and artillery shells used in warfare. It appears, however, that more explosives have been used in industry for peaceful purposes than in all the wars put together.1,2 According to U.S.

Investigating XDT in Rocket Propellants
2023Unknown (X) to Detonation Transition (XDT) is a significant concern in the design, assessment and use of rocket motors. The threat is the motor being hit by a fragment or other projectile which is not travelling sufficiently fast to cause Shock to Detonation Transition but causes damaged propellant to spall across the bore and detonate on impact with ...

Solid Propellant Rocket Motors
The Journal of the Royal Aeronautical Society, 1961A solid propellant rocket motor consists essentially of a propellant charge in a container fitted with an expansion nozzle and igniter. Since, before a rocket motor can be designed, it is necessary to have some knowledge of the properties of the propellant to be used, a description will first be given of the propellants which are currently available.

INVESTIGATION OF LIQUID ROCKET PROPELLANTS [PDF]
Abstract : N sub2 H sub4 derivatives: The f.p. of N sub2 H sub3 Me (I) wa s calculated as -56.08 deg. C; the eutectic for the system I-N sub2 H sub4 occured at 85 wt.-% I and -64 deg. C. Neutralizing I.H sub2 SO sub4 with KOH yielded 95. 6% I. The formation of trimethylazonium bromide in the reaction of N sub2 H sub4 and MeBr was not prevented by using

Integrated model of a composite propellant rocket
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2016The combustion of composite solid propellants was investigated and an available numerical model was improved for taking into account the change of pressure, when the process occurs in a confined environment, as inside a rocket. The pressure increase upon ignition is correctly described by the improved model for both sandwich and dispersed particles ...

Liquid Propellant Rocket Motors
The Journal of the Royal Aeronautical Society, 1953It has been said that a rocket motor is the simplest “ prime mover.” This is correct in theory, since fundamentally a rocket consists of a chamber containing a gas under pressure, having a nozzle at one end through which the gas expands, forming a propulsive jet. Since the pressure ratio of the rocket is always greater than the critical pressure ratio,

Elastomers Resistant to Rocket Propellants
Rubber Chemistry and Technology, 1966Abstract Resistance of polymers to hydrazine-type fuels, Hybaline A-5, nitrogen tetroxide, and fluorine-containing oxidizers was investigated. Elastomers found suitable for application in hydrazine-type fuels and Hybaline A-5 environments are butyl and ethylene propylene rubbers.

Solid propellants are of two basic types: composites and double base propellants. The latter consist of a backbone of nitrocellulose (guncotton) onto which a quantity of nitroglycerine has been absorbed, resulting in a leathery propellant which can be cast or extruded into desired shapes.

Nano-composites for rocket solid propellants
Composites Science and Technology, 2005Aim of this work is the study of different components (binder and aluminum powders) of solid propellants used for rocket propulsion to improve ballistic performance. New propellant formulations have been tested and characterised. Combustion residues were collected by a proprietary method and analyzed both from the morphological and chemical point of ...
