Ballistic and rheological properties of nitro-HTPB composite propellant
This paper reports the characterization of propellant containing hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) modified with nitro (NO) group. Two propellants named Mix 1 and Mix 2 were prepared using ammonium perchlorate (AP) as an oxidizer with a solid loading of 80%. Mix 1 propellant contained conventional HTPB, while Mix 2 used nitro-modified HTPB (nitro-HTPB). The rheology of nitro-HTPB binder was studied during curing process. The curing agent used was toulene diisocyante. The thermal decomposition of the propellant was studied using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA/DTA) which revealed energetic nature of propellant containing nitro-HTPB. The burn rate was measured in the pressure range of 1–7 MPa using a standard Crawford bomb. The burn rate of Mix 1 and Mix 2 was found to be 10.7 mm/s and 11.78 mm/s at 7 MPa. The pressure index of Mix 2 was observed to be much lower compared to Mix 1. Static motor testing was conducted to determine the combustion efficiency and nozzle efficiency. Characteristic velocity of Mix 2 and Mix 1 was found to be 1425 m/s and 1392 m/s respectively, in the motor test. Burn rates from the strand burner were validated with the burn rate obtained from static motor tests.
