Abstract
This review covers the effect of ageing on solid gun and rocket propellants in terms of their ballistic properties. A brief overview of the types of methods, which can be used to determine such parameters, is provided and the literature is described in terms of broad motivation areas for the research. It has been demonstrated that understanding the effects and outputs of propellants, and how these might be affected by ageing, remains an important area of research in the field of energetic materials.
期刊介绍:
Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics (PEP) is an international, peer-reviewed journal containing Full Papers, Short Communications, critical Reviews, as well as details of forthcoming meetings and book reviews concerned with the research, development and production in relation to propellants, explosives, and pyrotechnics for all applications. Being the official journal of the International Pyrotechnics Society, PEP is a vital medium and the state-of-the-art forum for the exchange of science and technology in energetic materials. PEP is published 12 times a year.
PEP is devoted to advancing the science, technology and engineering elements in the storage and manipulation of chemical energy, specifically in propellants, explosives and pyrotechnics. Articles should provide scientific context, articulate impact, and be generally applicable to the energetic materials and wider scientific community. PEP is not a defense journal and does not feature the weaponization of materials and related systems or include information that would aid in the development or utilization of improvised explosive systems, e.g., synthesis routes to terrorist explosives.
