Abstract

Abstract: The thermal behavior under pressure of 0.1, 4, and 7 MPa and non-isothermal decomposition reaction kinetics under pressure of 4 and 7 MPa of the composite modified double base propellant containing hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane (HNIW-CMDB propellant) was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results showed that there are two exothermic peaks on DSC curve under 0.1 MPa. The exothermic peak temperature decreases with surroundings pressure increasing. There is only one exothermic peak on every high pressure DSC curve. The exothermic peak temperature under every pressure increases with heating rate increasing. The exothermic decomposition kinetic parameters of the propellant changed while the reaction mechanism function didn't change when catalyzer was added into propellant or testing surroundings changed. The kinetic equation of exothermic decomposition reaction mechanism under 4 MPa and 7 MPa are Avrami-Erofeev (n=2/3).
