Abstract

This project focused on determining the burning characteristic of AP based propellants developed at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia including their fabrication methods and burning rate. Based on the curing test, it was found that the propellants had to be cured in the oven for at least seven days to ensure a stable burning rate. The burning rate test was conducted using propellant strands that were fabricated using press molding method and burnt in a strand burner or Crawfard Bomb at chamber pressures of 1 atmospheric, 2 bars and 4 bars. The results were observed following the Saint-Robert’s and Veille’s equation, given by r=〖aP〗n., a = 0.3914 and n = 0.436. Keywords : AP based propellants, curing test, Crawford bomb
