Abstract:Concentrated GAP/AP propellant suspensions with different solid contents and molecular masses of GAP were prepared, in which diglycerol tetranitrate (DGTN) was the energetic plasticizer. The steady shear measurements were conducted using a rheometer to examine the influences of component characteristics, particle gradation and temperature on rheological behavior. Results indicate that the GAP/DGTN mixture is Newtonian viscous and concentrated GAP/AP suspensions are pseudoplastic fluids. The Ostwald -De Waele m… Show more
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.
