Description

Herstellung von blas enfreien, Polyurethanbinder enthaltenden Raketentreibsätzen Bei der Herstellung von Raketentreibsätzen, besonders auf Basis von Ammonperchlorat, benutzt man mit Vorteil Polyurethane als Kunststoffbinder.Manufacture of bubble-free rocket propellants containing polyurethane binders at the production of rocket propellants, especially based on ammonium perchlorate, it is advantageous to use polyurethanes as plastic binders.

Diese besitzen in ihrer Einstellungsmöglichkeit eine sehr große Variationsbreite, sodaß je nach Rezeptur harte bis hochelastische Treibsätze erhalten werden können.These have a very wide range of settings in terms of their setting options, so that, depending on the recipe, hard to highly elastic propellants can be obtained.

Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, daß die Harzmischungen relativ niedrig viskos verwendet werden können und daß sich das Verhältnis Harzanteil zu Feststoff so einstellen läßt, daß man gießbare Mischungen erhält, die nach der Formgebung ausgehärtet werden können. Allen Polyurethantreibsätzen ist gemeinsam, daß zu ihrer Herstellung Verbindungen mit Isocyanatgruppen Verwendung finden. Another advantage is that the resin blends are relatively low viscous can be used and that the ratio of resin content to solids Can be adjusted in such a way that pourable mixtures are obtained after shaping can be cured. All polyurethane propellants have in common that their Production of compounds with isocyanate groups are used.

Diese Verwendung von Isocyanaten besitzt einen außerordentlichen und die Herstellung solcher Raketentreibsätze sehr erschwerenden Nachteil. Da Wasser mit Isocyanaten unter Bildung von Kohlendioxyd reagiert, so müssen alle Bestandteile des Treibsatzes vor ihrem Einsatz einer extremen Trocknung unterworfen werden. Die geringsten Spuren von Wasser resultieren in einer Gasbildung bei der Aushärtung. Da bekanntermaßen ein Treibsatz für eine einwandfreie Funktion keine Lunker und Blasen enthalten darf, so ist dieser Umstand der extremen Vortrocknung einer der schwierigsten Punkte bei der Verwendung von Polyurethanen als Binder. This use of isocyanates is extraordinary and the manufacture of such rocket propellants a very difficult disadvantage. Because water reacts with isocyanates to form carbon dioxide, all components must of the propellant must be subjected to extreme drying before they are used. the The slightest traces of water result in gas formation during curing. Since it is known that a propellant charge does not have any blowholes or cavities to function properly May contain bubbles, this fact of the extreme pre-drying is one of the most difficult points when using polyurethanes as binders.

Verwendet man Polyesterglykole als Reaktionspartner der Isocyanate, so tritt als weiterer erschwerender Umstand die noch stets vorhandenen Spuren freier Carboxylgruppen in Erscheinung. If polyester glycols are used as the reaction partner of the isocyanates, as a further aggravating circumstance, the traces that are still present appear more freely Carboxyl groups in appearance.

Auch Carboxylgruppen reagieren mit Isocyanaten unter Abspaltung von Kohlendioxyd. Die Verwendung von Polyesterurethanen ist somit mit noch größeren Schwierigkeiten verbunden, als sie bei den Polyätherurethanen gegeben sind.Carboxyl groups also react with isocyanates under Splitting off of carbon dioxide. The use of polyester urethanes is thus with connected with even greater difficulties than they were with the polyether urethanes are.

Es wurde nun gefunden, daß man die ohne extreme Vortrocknung der einzelnen Bestandteile der Treibsatzmischung von Spuren Wasser ebenso wie die aus dem Gehalt an Carboxylgruppen resultierende Gasentwicklung verhindern kann durch Zugabe geringer Mengen von Magnesium- und Alumininmalkoholaten. Am wirksamsten hat sich das Magnesiummethylat erwiesen. Das in den Treibsatzkomponenten noch enthaltene Wasser reagiert unter Bildung von Methanol und Magnesiumoxyd. It has now been found that the without extreme predrying of the individual components of the propellant mixture from traces of water as well as from the content of carboxyl groups can prevent gas evolution resulting from Addition of small amounts of magnesium and aluminum alcoholates. Has been most effective the magnesium methylate turned out to be. That still contained in the propellant components Water reacts to form methanol and magnesium oxide.

Methanol wird ohne Gasbildung an Isocyanatgruppen unter Bildung von Urethanen angelagert.Methanol is without gas formation at isocyanate groups with the formation of Accumulated urethanes.

Ebenso reagieren noch freie Carboxylgruppen unter Bildung von Magnesiumsalzen und Methanolabspaltung. Es genügen normalerweise 0,5 bis I,oO/o Magnesiummethylat, um auch ohne extreme Vortrocknung einen völlig blasenfreien Treibsatz zu erhalten.Free carboxyl groups also react to form magnesium salts and elimination of methanol. Normally, 0.5 to 1, oO / o magnesium methylate is sufficient, in order to obtain a completely bubble-free propellant even without extreme pre-drying.
