Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.Ammonium dinitramide (ADN) and 3,4‐Diaminofurazan (DAF) form a 1:1 energetic cocrystal. We report its crystal structure and spectroscopic signature and evaluate thermal stability, decomposition behavior, hygroscopicity, and combustion properties. Propellant performance calculations benchmark the material against guanylurea dinitramide (GuDN) and ...

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.This study presents an alternative method to manufacture polymer‐bonded explosives by partially curing an HTPB‐based molding powder prior to compaction. The study shows that the length of partial cure time before compaction directly influenced the geometric fidelity, homogeneity, compressive strength, density, and internal microstructure.

Technical report analysis and design: Study of solid rocket motors for a space shuttle booster, volume 2, book 1, supplement 1 [PDF]
An analysis and design effort was conducted as part of the study of solid rocket motor for a space shuttle booster. The 156-inch-diameter, parallel burn solid rocket motor was selected as its baseline because it is transportable and is the most cost ...

Solvent‐Induced Surface Morphology Probed by NP‐SIMS
Surface and Interface Analysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Surface morphology, that is, roughness and molecular arrangement, is known to have an impact on secondary ion mass spectra. The present study examines this issue using nanoprojectile secondary ion mass spectrometry (NP‐SIMS). NP‐SIMS involves bombarding the analyte with individual nanoparticles resolved in space and time and recording the ...

Cold solid propellant motor has stop-restart capability [PDF]
, 1966 Solid propellant rocket is kept and fired at low temperatures in launch vehicles or spacecraft. The motor is capable of developing a specific impulse comparable to that of liquid propellant motors, is started, stopped, and restarted, and is stored in ...

Small, EarlyView.A one‐step oblique angle reactive sputtering approach enables simultaneous tuning of bulk and interfacial stoichiometry in a metal oxide/ silicon heterojunction. In case of vanadium oxides, growth angle variation controls the formation of stoichiometric SiO2, ternary SiOx(V) interlayer, and phase purity of vanadium oxide, considerably simplifying the ...
