TLDR
In this paper, the thermal decomposition of aged and non-aged samples of ammonium perchlorate (AP)/hydroxyl-terminated-polybutadiene (HTPB), the AP/HTPB solid propellant, were studied at different heating rates in dynamic nitrogen atmosphere.Abstract:
The thermal decomposition of aged and non-aged samples of ammonium perchlorate(AP)/hydroxyl-terminated-polybutadiene(HTPB), the AP/HTPB solid propellant, were studied at different heating rates in dynamic nitrogen atmosphere. The exothermic reaction kinetics was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in non-isothermal conditions. The Arrhenius parameters were estimated according to the Ozawa method. The calculated activation energies were 134.5 kJ/mol (non-aged) and 79.0 kJ mol -1 (aged), the pre-exponential factors, A, were 2.04 10 10 min -1 for the non-aged samples and 1.29.10 6 min -1 for the aged samples and the reaction orders for the global composite decomposition were estimated in 0.7 and 0.6 (non-aged and aged samples decomposition, respectively) by the kinetic Shimadzu software based in the Ozawa method. The Kissinger method for obtaining the activation energy value was also used for a comparison purpose. These results are here discussed.read more

Role of Binders in Solid Propellant Combustion
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of inert binder properties on composite solid propellant burning rate were investigated and defined for many binders of practical interest over a wide range of heating rates and pressures, in several environmental gases, with and without 10 percent ammonium perchlorate (AP) contained in the sample, and in some cases with catalysts.
