Abstract

The effect of CuO, Fe2O3, carbon black (CB), PbCO3, Bi2O3 and (NH4)2Cr2O7 on the thermal decomposition properties of P (BAMO/AMMO) energetic binder was investigated by TG and DSC. Results show that the six burning rate catalysts make the initial decomposition temperature of P(BAMO/AMMO) binder shift downwards and the exothermic decomposition reaction of azide groups advance, and the exothermic decomposition reaction of binder is promoted, in which, CB and PbCO3 make the initial decomposition temperature of the binder shift 8.3℃ and 24.2℃ downwards at a heating rate of 10℃·min-1, respectively. CuO, Fe2O3, PbCO3 and (NH4)2Cr2O7 make the apparent decomposition heat of azide groups in P(BAMO/AMMO) binder increase by 0.05, 0.09, 0.10 kJ·g-1 and 0.06 kJ·g-1, respectively, whereas CB and Bi2O3 make the apparent decomposition heat of azide groups decrease.
