Rubber Chemistry and Technology, 2019 ABSTRACT Solid propellants are energetic materials used to launch and propel rockets and missiles. Although their history dates to the use of black powder more than two millennia ago, greater performance demands and the need for “insensitive munitions” that are resistant to accidental ignition have driven much research and development over the ...
