Effect of fast-burning compound ACP and catalyst on the combustion performance of Al/Mg-based fuel-rich HTPB propellants

In order to solve the problem of weak injection of fuel-rich propellant and to enhance its burning rate, the combustion behaviors of Al/Mg-based fuel-rich HTPB propellants with 40wt% metal content were studied with and without the addition of fast burning compound hydrated tetra-(4-amino-1, 2, 4-tri...

description In order to solve the problem of weak injection of fuel-rich propellant and to enhance its burning rate, the combustion behaviors of Al/Mg-based fuel-rich HTPB propellants with 40wt% metal content were studied with and without the addition of fast burning compound hydrated tetra-(4-amino-1, 2, 4-triazole) copper perchlorate (ACP) and burning rate catalyst Pb5. The results show that the burning rates of the Al/Mg-based fuel-rich HTPB propellants with the addition of fast burning compound and catalyst increase significantly, and the pressure exponents decrease. With the increase of pressure, the fluctuation of burning interface of the propellants increases and the flame height decreases. Compared with the Mg-based propellants of high burning rate, the agglomeration of condensed combustion products of the Al-based propellants is much more serious; the combustion extent of aluminum in the Al-based propellants is obviously lower than that of magnesium in the Mg-based propellants. These results are very meaningful for the design of fuel-rich HTPB propellants with high performance.
