Notes:
A pilot scale fluidized bed process was developed for preparing porous ammonium perchlorate (PAP) in various particle sizes. The oxidizer, ammonium perchlorate (AP), of composite solid propellant was partially replaced by PAP which was obtained by the fluidization process. The burning rate of propellants containing PAP was found to increase as compared with that of propellants without PAP. In the present study, the effects of percentage content and particle size of PAP incorporated in propellant compositions, on the burning rate were investigated. The results showed that the burning rate increases with increasing of PAP content and with decreasing of PAP particle size for trimodal oxidizer propellants.
