Abstract:This review covers the effect of ageing on solid gun and rocket propellants in terms of their ballistic properties. A brief overview of the types of methods, which can be used to determine such parameters, is provided and the literature is described in terms of broad motivation areas for the research. It has been demonstrated that understanding the effects and outputs of propellants, and how these might be affected by ageing, remains an important area of research in the field of energetic materials.
