THERMO-MECHANICAL ANALYSIS OF HETEROGENEOUS SOLID ROCKET PROPELLANT

Journal Title: PROBLEMY TECHNIKI UZBROJENIA - Year 2018, Vol 147, Issue 3

Abstract

The article presents results of thermo-mechanical analysis of heterogeneous solid rocket propellant H2, with special attention devoted to determining the glass transition temperature and softening temperature. Mechanical properties such as storage modulus (E’), loss modulus (E’’) and tan(δ) were measured using NETZSCH DMA 242C analyzer within temperature range from -120oC to +80oC at 2 K/min of heating rate and frequency of applied force f = 1 Hz. Relative thermal expansion as well as the Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion (CLTE) of H2 sample were determined using NETZSCH DIL 402C dilatometer within temperature range from 30oC to 80oC at 1 K/min of heating/cooling rate. The thermophysical properties including thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, and specific heat were determined within temperature range from -20oC to +80oC using KD2 Pro apparatus.<br/><br/>
