New Materials Design

Abstract

The identification, development, and formulation of new energetic materials for advanced rocket propulsion applications is an area of long standing interest to the Air Force. The performance limits of currently used propellants have been reached, so new energetic compounds are required to significantly improve the ability of the warfighter to access and control space.
