Metal–Fluorocarbon Pyrolants: VIII.1‡ Behavior of Burn Rate and Radiometric Performance of two Magnesium/Teflon/Viton (MTV) Formulations upon Addition of Graphite§

August 26, 2008

Ernst-Christian Koch

Abstract: The burn rate, u (mm s⁻¹) of fuel rich magnesium/Teflon/Viton (MTV) is increased by 23-36 % upon addition of 5 wt% graphite whereas the spectral efficiency Eβ (J g⁻¹ sr⁻¹) remains largely unaffected.

Keywords: Burn rate, graphite, magnesium, MTV, polytetrafluoroethylene, radiometry, Teflon^TM, Viton^TM
