Abstract

Smoke reduced propellants with different binders such as HTPB, Polyether, NEPE are studied. The composition of the pyrolytic products are measured by PYGC-MS. The result shows that the products and their contents in pyrolytic processes are different. The measured value representing the 44 peak in the NEPE smoke-reduced propellant is 70% of the total value, while the one in the polyether smoke-reduced propellant is only 10%, which results in the difference in pressure exponent between these two propellants.
