1. Catalytic Effects of Ruthenocene Bimetallic Compounds Derived from Fused Aromatic Ring Ligands on the Main Oxidizing Agent for Solid Rocket Motor
We report the catalytic effect of three ruthenocene bimetallic compounds derived from fused aromatic rings of general formula [{Cp*Ru}2L], with Cp*: pentamethylcyclopentadiene and L = pentalene (1), 2,6-diethyl-4,8-dimethyl-s-indacene (2), and 2,7-diethyl-as-indacene (3), on the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP). The new compound 3 was chara

2. A New Energetic Complex: Synthesis, Structure, and Combustion Catalysis Performance
The potential of tetrazole-based ligands for forming energetic complexes applied in pyrotechnics and propellants is demonstrated with the use of 5,5’-(1,3-phenylene)bis(1H-tetrazole) (H2BTB) to generate an energetic complex with high energy. A new energetic complex of PbII-tetrazolate, [Pb2(BTB)2(H2O)8]·5H2O (1), was synthesized and structurally character

3. A Reliable Method for Predicting the Specific Impulse of Chemical Propellants
ABSTRACT The specific impulse (Isp) is an important performance parameter that describes energy efficiency of propellant combustion and is intimately related to the rocket engine thrust. In this study, it was possible by using only two variables, i.e., the heat of reaction (Q) and the number of moles of gaseous reaction products per gram of propellant (Ng) c

4. Space Propulsion: a Survey Study About Current and Future Technologies
ABSTRACT: Current Space Launch Vehicles use chemical reactions (solid and liquid propellants) to achieve sufficient thrust to launch artifacts and humans into space. Propulsion technologies can be framed in three different categories: "escape propulsion", "in-space propulsion", and "deep space propulsion". The launch vehicles currently used for "escape propu

5. Evaluation of Filler Effects on the Dynamic Mechanical Behavior of HTPB-Elastomer Used as Binder in Exemplary Composite Formulations
ABSTRACT: This study aims to evaluate the dynamic mechanical properties of a binder, used in composite propellants, with increasing amount of different solid fillers. Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) is performed to determine the region of glass-rubber transition temperature (Tg). Further parameters were obtained from the description of the loss factor curv

6. Characteristics and Manufacture of Spherical Smokeless Powders
ABSTRACT: Smokeless propellants have been studied and manufactured for many decades. They can exist in various physical forms and also can have different properties according to the use of each propellant. One important form of smokeless powders is the ball powder, which has spherical grains. The manufacture process of the ball powder has many advantages ove

7. Chemically Collapsible Mandrel for Solid Rocket Motor Processing
ABSTRACT: Composite propellant mainly consists of two parts, binder matrix (prepolymer, plasticizer, cross linker, antioxidant and curative etc.) and solid ingredients (oxidizer, metal fuel, burn rate modifier, combustion stabilizer etc.). Its processing involves several stages like ingredient preparation (grinding, 1.1 Hazard Division - 1.1 HD), mixing (1.1

8. Acúmulo de cargas elétricas em propelente sólido compósito com matriz de polibutadieno líquido hidroxilado
Composite solid propellants prepared with HTPB prepolymer - Hydroxyl Terminated Polybutadiene, AP - Ammonium Perchlorate as oxidizer and aluminum particles as an additive metal, have characteristics of high electrical resistivity. The loading process of the polymer matrix did not obtain homogeneity, resulting in clusters, mainly of metal particles. The effec

10. Combustion Modeling of Aluminum Incorporated in Low-Explosive Formulations such as Solid Propellants
ABSTRACT: Aluminum that is incorporated in an energetic material such as a propellant plays a significant role in the combustion process by means of stabilization with regard to the burning and generation of additional energy. The use of simulation softwares to model the combustion mechanism and kinetic parameters of the elementary reactions that compose the

11. Green Propellants: Oxidizers
ABSTRACT: The research for low toxicity and no damage to the environment has stimulated the development of specific investigation lines in many areas. Inevitably, the criteria for safe handling, sensitivity and, above all, specific impulse (efficiencies) of propellant compositions are still superior in relation to ecological appeals. Nowadays, however, the s

12. Studies on the Influence of Testing Parameters on Dynamic and Transient Properties of Composite Solid Rocket Propellants Using a Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer
Abstract: Dynamic mechanical analysis is a unique technique that measures the modulus and damping of materiais as they are deformed under periodic stress. Propellants, which are viscoelastic in nature, are subjected to time, temperature, and frequency effects during the analysis to determine their dynamic and transient properties. The choice of parameters du
