Popis: To achieve the controllable release of energy of nitrocellulose-based propellants, this paper combines the cellulose-based nanocomposites aqueous coating (Surelease®-NC) with fluidized bed coating equipment to successfully prepare the coated spherical propellant for the first time. The effects of fluidized bed coating temperature, air velocity, flow speed and atomization pressure on the adhesion rate, coating integrity and coating uniformity of the coated spherical propellant were investigated, and the preparation of coated spherical propellant with homogeneous size and structural integrity was achieved for the first time. The microscopic morphology, chemical structure, water vapor adsorption behavior, combustion performance, and ageing resistance property of the coated spherical propellant were systematically investigated by, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Micro confocal raman spectrometer, field scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dynamic vapor adsorption techniques, and closed bomb test, confirming the surface core-shell structure and the tightly bonded interfacial structure of coated spherical propellant. Meanwhile, the coated spherical propellant has good hygroscopic, excellent progressive burning and long storage stability.
