Thermally Stable Burning Rate Accelerators

Abstract

Two methods of producing thermally stable UFAP have been examined experimentally. These include ultrasonic grinding and spray-freeze drying. A number of synthetic routes have been utilized in efforts to obtain model structures for correlating ferrocene-containing catalyst stability with structure. More than twenty-five different compounds have been synthesized and of these, eight have been prepared and purified by techniques described earlier. These models have been tested by reaction with air at elevated temperature, and by thermal stability of propellants made from these model compounds.
