The binder for solid rocket propellant is usually a thermoset polymer called hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB). “We are utilising thermoplastics,” he said.

Rockets are powered by composite solid propellant, which is a heterogeneous system consisting of solid oxidizer and metallic fuel dispersed in a polymeric fuel binder matrix. The slurry casting ...
