Test title: AP/AL/HTPB propellant
Like Pyrotechnic Worksheet nr. 4 but more Al-powder (the larger 12 mm throat should not blocked
anymore), predicted combustion pressure = 7.5 MPa
Batch Composition:
Ingredients % grams Notes
R45M, HTPB Resin 15 90 Resin & Fuel
Soja-Lecithin 0.5 3 Processing agent, viscosity reducer

AP, particle size 200 um 50 300
AP, particle size 90 um 22 135 AP together: 72%, 90um AP -> grind a little in
a mortar (it baked together)

TOTAL 100% 601gr
Processing:
1. Adding Lecitin, Anti foaming Agent, Plasticizer (not more than 50% of the amount of R45 resin) to the R45M Resin
2. Machine mixing 1 Min.
3. Add small parts Aluminum powder, stir it slowly (not by machine!) under the resin. Next part Alu. Etc
4. Add Burning Catalyst (Fe2O3)
5. Mixing 2 min, degasing (the fine AL and Fe2O3 Powder entraps a lot of air which is difficult to get out later when the grain
has a higher viscosity!)
6. Adding AP , 90um AP -> grind a little in a mortar (it baked together)
7. Machine mixing 5 min.
8. Adding 2 % of the amount of the curing Agent to react with the moisture (0.25 grams), it will consumed by the reaction
with the moisture.
9. Machine mixing 20 min (3 x stirring down the mix from the wall of the bowl).
10. Degasing and vibrating under vacuum 30 min., let it in the vacuum chamber for half a day, the vacuum chamber resides
in the climate chamber (50° C) during this time, vibrating again.
11. Preheat the casting form to 50 ° C.
12. Adding curing agents 143L (not more than 11 % of the content of HTPB!)
13. Mixing the warm Mix 5 min
14. Degasing 10 min (preferably together with vibrating)
15. Casting into the warm casting form with a „Vermiselle“ press, vibrating (Casting form coated with wax ad silicon grease
which will be dissolved by the resin/plasticizer)
16. Curing in climate chamber 40° C
