Innovative Solid Formulations for Rocket Propulsion
Eurasian Chemico-Technological Journal, 2016 Solid rocket propulsion enjoys several unique properties favoring its use in space exploration and military missions still for decades to come, in spite of being by far the most mature propulsion technology among those currently employed. Yet, solid rocket propellants also suffer a limited performance in terms of gravimetric specifi c impulse. Although
