Arakawa, Youichi published the artcileAmmonium nitrate based composite solid propellant. 2. Effects of the addition of surfactants on viscosity of uncured propellant, Quality Control of 2016-56-0, the publication is Kayaku Gakkaishi (1997), 58(2), 83-88, database is CAplus.
Effects of the addition of surfactants on viscosity and shearing stress of uncured ammonium nitrate (AN) based propellant were studied. Viscosity could not be decreased by the addition of surfactants such as sodium myristate, sodium stearate and sodium linoleate. Lauryl amine was most effective for decreasing viscosity. By addition of lauryl amine, the propellant of 85 weight% AN content could be casted. Burning rate of the propellant of 85 weight% AN content was about 1.4 times bigger than that of the propellant of 81 weight% AN content.
