Definitions

  • Composite solid propellant composition comprising a ferrocene derivative and a submicron aluminum charge, solid propellant and loading
  • the present invention relates to composite compositions for solid propellant, propellants (pasty or solid) based on such compositions and loadings comprising such solid propellants.
  • the solid propellants considered are propellants with high combustion rate and high specific impulse. They are particularly suitable for rocket and missile propulsion loads.
  • the propellant compositions consisting of an oxidizing filler, generally ammonium perchlorate (PA), an aluminum (Al) micrometric filler, generally having a median diameter of between 5 ⁇ m and 30 ⁇ m, and a binder Polyurethane (PU), are widely used for rocket propulsion applications in the military and civilian fields.
  • PA ammonium perchlorate
  • Al aluminum
  • PU binder Polyurethane
  • the propellants are in the paste state in the mixing and casting phases for obtaining the charges (the crosslinking agent of the polymer of the polyurethane binder not yet being added to the composition, or the crosslinking agent having added, the crosslinking of the binder polymer is not yet complete), and in the solid state when the binder is crosslinked.
  • Conventional composite propellants (of the type used for accelerators of the Ariane rocket) typically have a combustion rate of between 8 and 14 mm / s at a pressure of 7 MPa.
  • ferrocene derivatives as a combustion catalyst in this type of composition, to increase the rate of combustion.
  • Propellants can thus, following incorporation into their Within a liquid ferrocenic product, present combustion rates up to 50 mm / s at 7 MPa.
  • the rate of catalyst introduced into the compositions must remain limited (a few percent by weight), because of the increase in propellant sensitivity which results from the use of said catalyst.
  • the combustion speeds accessible thereby remain limited and between 20 and 30 mm / s (at 7 MPa).
  • micrometric aluminum particles contained in the propellant burn with the oxidizing charge in the rocket or missile combustion chamber and are in the form of micrometric alumina particles.
  • the presence of particles of micrometric dimensions in the combustion chamber is favorable to the reduction of the instabilities of combustion (leading to pressure oscillations).
  • the micrometric aluminum particles contained in the propellants concerned may, because of their limited residence time in the combustion chamber of the rocket or the missile, not burn completely before being ejected by the nozzle. This results in a loss of energy performance of the engine.
  • the larger particles of alumina may not follow the flow of gases and accumulate in the rear part of the combustion chamber, creating an embedded inert mass increasing as the propellant charge burns.
  • micrometric granulometry Dmedian ⁇ 5 to 30 ⁇ m
  • submicron aluminum 0.1 ⁇ m ⁇ Dmedian ⁇ 1 ⁇ m
  • nanometric 50 nm ⁇ Dmedian ⁇ 100 nm

  • the inventors have, however, jointly introduced said ferrocene and submicron aluminum catalyst into the composition of a composite solid propellant and have obtained surprising results (see in particular those given in Table 2 below: increase in the rate of combustion without increasing the sensitivity), which invalidate the prejudice.
  • the first subject of the invention concerns composite compositions for solid composite propellants making it possible to achieve the desired properties for said propellants, by combining, in a solid propellant composition, a ferrocene catalyst and a particle size aluminum filler. submicron or even nanometric.

  • the graft polymer is generally a polymer with ethylenic unsaturations comprising, on at least some of said unsaturations, silylmetallocene groups. It can in particular be a polymer, as described in patent application FR 2 567 895, the silylmetallocene groups of which have the following formula: R 3
