Abstract
A method for removing a gas from a propellant composition includes providing an uncured propellant composition comprising a bonding agent, energetic particles, and a polymeric binder, and flowing an inert gas through the uncured propellant composition to remove an evolved gas from the uncured propellant composition.
Claims20
A method for removing a gas from a propellant composition, the method comprising:
- providing an uncured propellant composition comprising a bonding agent, energetic particles, and polymeric binder;
- and
- flowing an inert gas through the uncured propellant composition to remove an evolved gas from the uncured propellant composition.
A method for removing a gas from a propellant composition, the method comprising:
- disposing a bonding agent, energetic particles, and a polymeric binder in a mixing container, the bonding agent, the energetic particles, and polymeric binder forming a propellant composition;
- rotating the mixing container about its central axis to mix the propellant composition;
- and
- flowing, while rotating, an inert gas through the propellant composition to remove an evolved gas from the propellant composition.
