Abstract

Ultra-ultrahigh burning rate composite modified double-base propellants arebtained by use of porous ammonium perchlorate as a replacement for the ultra-ultrafine ammonium perchlorate. The porous ammonium perchlorate is used in combination with aluminum powder fuel and aluminum staples, nitroglycerin as an explosive plasticizer, triacetin as a non-explosive plasticizer, stabilizers selected from resorcinol and 2-nitrodiphenylamine and other selected additives for achieving desired processing, mechanical, ballistic, and other properties of the propellant.
