“…From the limited understanding of SCO reaction mechanisms in AP containing solid propellants, there have been numerous attempts to mitigate their SCO violence through formulation modifications. Mellor et al (1988) suggested partitioning the energy of the propellant or explosive by using an energetic binder with less energetic particles to provide a softer SCO ignition. Other ideas include altering the binder's mechanical and chemical properties during SCO and coating the AP itself to alter its reactivity.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
