[KoD] and [Navic] are building solid propellant motors using sugar and ... satisfying about the ingenuity that goes into the materials. For a casing they’re using PVC pipe, and forming a cone ...

Magdrive is working on three versions of its space thrusters, and because they run on solid metal, they might one day even be powered by space junk collected directly in orbit, turning it from threat ...

[Markus Bindhammer] worked out a way to make solid rocket propellant from newspaper. Judging from the test footage after the break the home made engines work great! There isn’t a long list of ...

Isro, in collaboration with the Central Manufacturing Technology Institute, developed a 10-tonne vertical planetary mixer, the largest globally for solid propellants. This indigenous mixer will ...

Gelled propellants are produced from liquid propellants with the addition of gelling agents. They are solid at rest, for example in a tank, and become flowable under the influence of shear stress, as ...

The United States Air Force and Northrop Grumman achieved a milestone last week in their efforts to modernize the land-based ...

to ensure a uniform and reliable mixture for solid rocket motors. These mixers, such as planetary mixers, are utilised to combine the raw materials that compose rocket propellant. The quality of ...

The mixer, a critical piece of equipment for processing solid propellants employed in rocket motors ... and accurate mixing of highly hazardous and sensitive materials. The mixer has cleared stringent ...
