Popis: has been used to examine the pyrolysis product distributions of a composite propellant formulation series. The series was formulated with the oxidizers HMX and RDX, the polymers GAP, HTPB, BAMO/AMMO, and BAMOTTHF, and the plasticizers BlTN and TMETN. Trends in product distribution as a function of formulation, as well as correlations between radiative ignition times and pyrolysis products were identified. The most noteworthy correlations observed were between the amounts of permanent gases and amides produced and goho-go ignition time. In general, pyrolysis product distribution were found to be most strongly affected by the presence and type of plasticizer.
