Journal ArticleDOI
Combustion Efficiencies of Aluminum and Boron in Solid Propellants
Tohru Mitani,Muneo Izumikawa +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a closed-type strand bomb was used to trap all species participating in solid propellant combustion to measure combustion efficiencies of aluminum (Al) and boron (B) using titration techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combustion Behaviour of Nitrocellulose and its Complexes with Copper Oxide. Hot stage microscopic studies
TL;DR: Complexes of nitrocellulose with copper oxide (CuO) have been synthesized and studied for morphological behaviour on heating from room temperature to 500°C with the help of hot stage microscopy (HSM).
Journal ArticleDOI

Junwoo Lee,Tae-Wan Kim,Seung Un Ryu,Kyoungwon Choi,Gil Hwan Ahn,Jong Gyu Paik,Byungtae Ryu,Taiho Park,Yong Sun Won +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the decomposition of laminac, a polymer binder, is the fastest spontaneous reaction and will not self-initiate at a storage temperature as high as 120 °C, and surface oxide formation with the aging of BKNO3 will decrease its propulsive efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Probing boron thermite energy release at rapid heating rates
TL;DR: In this paper, the early-time reaction of B-thermite mixtures using the laser-induced air shock from energetic materials (LASEM) technique, bomb calorimetry, and differential scanning (DSC) was compared to single metal oxides.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Laser Ignition Microthruster for Microspacecraft Propulsion
TL;DR: In this article, a laser-ignited micro-thruster was developed for micro-spacecraft propulsion, using 60 mg B/KNO3 pellets ignited by a 1 W laser beam.
