Abstract
The paper presents the ignition characteristics of high-energy materials (HEMs) containing ammonium perchlorate, butadiene rubber, and a mixture of Al/B nanopowders with different component ratios. Bimetallic systems based on aluminum with boron increase the reactivity and intensify the ignition of boron particles, which helps to decrease the critical ignition conditions of HEMs during heating. It is shown that the use of systems based on aluminum-boron reduces the delay time (by 17–52 %) and the ignition temperature of propellants in comparison with a HEM containing aluminum powder, and increases the activation energy of HEM during radiant heating.
