Description
Non-Phthalate Propellants The invention relates to Insensitive Munition (IM) energetic materials particularly non-phthalate IM propellant compositions.
Low and high energy gun propellants and their energetic compositions, are based on colloidal mixtures of nitroglycerine, nitrocellulose and nitroguanidine (also called picrite) in varying proportions, such as those discussed in GB2371297. The technology used to manufacture these has changed little in 100 years.
Colloidal compositions are, generally, classed as single, double, or, triple base compositions depending on the proportions of the major constituents present (i.e. one, two or three major components, respectively). Other components, e.g. nitramines, have been incorporated to increase the force constant, or, energy level, of these compositions and colloidal compositions comprising three, or, more major components, may be referred to as multibase compositions.
Colloidal propellants, particularly for high energy applications, suffer from the disadvantage that they are highly vulnerable to unwanted ignition when in a hostile environment and subjected to attack by an energetic projectile, e.g. a projectile comprising a shaped warhead charge.
According to a first aspect of the invention there is provided an energetic composition suitable for use as a propellant comprises the following components in the following relative proportions: component A; from 60% to 90% by weight of a highly energetic filler comprising at least one nitramine compound; and component B: from 5% to 20% by weight of a binder component C: from and 3% to 15% of a plasticiser wherein the plasticiser comprises formula (A) of from 1% to 12% by weight, wherein Formula (A) is a diester plasticiser of Ri-OC(O)-R3-C(O)O-R2, Formula (A) wherein R1, R2, and R3 are independently selected from C1 to C10 alkyl, alkenyl, the percentages by weight of components A, B and C, together with minor additives, if any, adding to 100%.
The use of phthalates in industrial processes are being phased out due to their toxic nature. Their use as plasticisers are well known and are compatible with many energetic compositions. It has been advantageously found that dialkyl esters, such as those defined by Formula (A), may be used to replace phthalates.
The role of a plasticiser has a two-fold effect. It is used as a processing aid to increase pliability of the dough like material, reducing its viscosity and hence enables ease of pressing into a suitable propellant shape. It also improves the physical properties of the propellant by increasing its flexibility, making it easier to work with. . In contrast, plasticisers used in HE compositions are employed to ensure flow of material into a fixed cavity and are used in very small quantities, less than 2%wt.
In compositions according to the present invention, component A provides the high energy capability of the composition. It may be desirable to replace a portion of the highly energetic filler with an IM energetic filler, in the range of from 1 0-40%wt.
Components B and C provides processability enabling mixtures to be formed together with component A which may be worked into a suitable dough-like material which may be pressed, rolled or extruded to form suitable propellant products. The mutual combination of these components is specially selected in compositions according to the present invention because of the unexpected advantages such a combination provides as follows.
Compositions according to the present invention can be suitably processed to provide propellant materials, eg for use as gun or rocket propellants, especially gun propellants, which unexpectedly and beneficially can show an improved, ie. reduced vulnerability over colloidal propellants, but without a corresponding decrease in energy normally associated with such an improvement.
The main properties which are desirable for a low vulnerability gun propellant, in addition to its reduced, vulnerability to shaped charge attack may be summarised as follows: (1) a good practical propellant force; for example gun propellants for use in large calibre kinetic energy projectile applications or for use in artillery applications showing a force in the range of 820KJ/kg to that of 1 250KJ per Kg or more.
(2) a low rate of burn desirably less than 80mm per second; this allows stick propellants of reduced web size to be used; (3) a low flame temperature desirably less than 3200K; this affords the possibility of reduced gun barrel erosion; (4) the possibility of processing into a dough and extruding the dough using simple conventional processing solvents: (5) the possibility of processing into a propellant product which shows little or no aeration with a density greater than 98%, preferably greater than 99 per cent, of its theoretical maximum density; which results in a more dense and cohesive propellant matrix.
(6)10w gas molecular weight, preferably in the range 20 to 22; enhancing the gas volume on ignition enhancing projectile velocity The propellant compositions embodying the invention are suitable for forming propellant products having unexpectedly all of aforementioned desirable properties.
The component A may be selected from high energy energetic filler, present in the range of 60% to 90% wt. Examples are heteroalicyclic nitramines, such as for example RDX(cyclo-1,3,5-trimethylene, 2,4,6-trinitramine, cyclonite or Hexagen), HMX (cyclo-l,3,5,7-tetramethylene-2,4,6,8-tetranitramine, Octogen) or TATND (tetranitro-tetraminodecalin) and mixtures thereof. Other high energetic fillers may be TAGN, aromatic nitramines such as tetryl, ethylene dinitramine, and nitrate esters such as nitroglycerine (glycerol trinitrate), butane triol trinitrate or pentaerythrital tetranitrate, and inorganic perchlorates and nitrates such as ammonium perchlorate optionally together with metallic fuel such as aluminium particles.
The IM energetic filler, may be selected from such as, for example, Nitrotriazolone (NTO), Hexanitrostilbene (HNS), Nitroguanidine (Picrite), Triaminotrinitrobenzene (TATB), Guarnylureadinitramide (FOX-i 2), i,1 -diamino 2,2-dinitro ethylene (FOX-7). The IM energetic filler is one which, without modification, has an FOI greater than 100. Many energetic fillers, including RDX and HMX may be modified, either via stabilisers or coatings such that they have a degree of IM compliance, and an FOI of greater than 100. The component A is selected from a material which is inherently IM, such as will have an FOl>iOO, without any processing or modification. It has been advantageously found that the inclusion of an IM energetic fill in the amount of from 5% to 25% by weight, provides a final composition which has a high level of IM compliance.
Component B, the binder may be selected from a non-energetic binder and/or an energetic binder, present in the range of from 8% to i6%wt..
Preferably the binder is a mixture of an energetic and non-energetic binder; more preferably the energetic binder is present in the range of from 5%-10% by weight, non-energetic binder is present in the range of from 5%-i5% by weight, with a binder %wt in the range of from 8%-1 6%wt.
Examples of suitable non-energetic binder materials which may be blended with EVA are cellulosic materials such as esters, ego cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate butyrate, polyurethanes, polyesters, polybutadienes, polyethylenes, polyvinyl acetate and blends and/or copolymers thereof.
Examples of suitable energetic binder materials which may be used along side a non energetic binder, such as EVA are nitrocellulose, polyvinyl nitrate, nitroethylene, nitroallyl acetate, nitroethyl acrylate, nitroethy methacrylate, trin itroethyl acrylate, din itropropyl acrylate, C-nitropolystyrene and its derivatives, polyurethanes with aliphatic C-and N-nitro groups, polyesters made from dinitrocarboxylic acids and dinitrodiol and homopolymers of 3-nitrato-3 methyl oxetane (P0IyNIMMO).
The composition comprises component C a plasticiser, wherein the plasticiser comprises a compound formula (A) of from 5% to 10% by weight.
Additional plasticisers which may be selected from a non-energetic plasticiser and/or an energetic plasticiser. Preferably the plasticiser is a mixture of energetic and non-energetic plasticisers; yet more preferably when both are present the; energetic plasticiser is present in the range of from 0%-8% by weight, and non-energetic plasticiser, which includes formula (A), is present in the range of from 2%-i 0% by weight; such that the total plasticiser is preferably 5%-i 0%wt.
Examples of energetic plasticisers may be Butyl NENA, GAP (glycidyl azide polymer), BDNPA/F (bis-2,2-din itropropylacetol/formal), dimethylmethylene dinitroamine, bis(2,2,2-trinitropropyl)formal, bis(2,2,2-trinitroethyl)formal, bis (2-fluoro-2,2-din itroethyl)formal, d iethylene gylcol dinitrate, glycerol trinitrate, glycol trinitrate, triethylene glycol dinitrate, tetrethylene glycol dinitrate, trimethylolethane trinitrate, butanetriol trinitrate, or 1,2,4-butanetriol trinitrate.

Preferably, the plasticiser contains only a compound of formula (A), and is present in the range of from 5%-1O%wt.
Examples of minor additives may for example comprise one or more stabilisers, e.g. carbamite (N,N1-diphenyl, NN1-diethylurea) or PNMA (para-nitromethylmethoxyaniline); and/or one or more ballistic modifiers, e.g. carbon black or lead salts: and/or one or more flash suppressants, e.g. one or more sodium or potassium salts, e.g. sodium or potassium sulphate or bicarbonate and one or more binder-to-energetic filler coupling agents and one or more antioxidants.
According to a further aspect of the invention there is provided a gun propellant comprising sticks or granules comprising a composition according to anyone of the preceding claims.
Compositions according to the present invention may be processed into propellants by techniques which are known to those skilled in the art. The ingredients are incorporated in a suitable kneader to form a homogeneous composition. Eventually, the composition produced is pressed, rolled or extruded in the form of a dough-like material through suitably shaped extrusion dies. Extrusion may be carried out using a co-rotating twin screw extrusion machine.
Sticks are usually formed by cutting to suitable length rods or strands extruded through suitable dies giving a shape including a longitudinal slot.
Granules are usually similarly formed by cutting to much shorter lengths rods or sticks obtained by extrusion. Normally, such granules have small holes, ego seven holes running lengthwise therethrough to provide suitable burning surfaces.
Particularly preferred compositions are outlined in Table 1, below.
