## Abstract The thermal decomposition characteristics of RDX, binders, and RDX composite propellants were studied using thermal analytical techniques. Three kinds of binders were tested to elucidate the role of binder on the burning rate of the propellants. There were no apparent correlations betwe
Thermal decomposition of pure cyclotrimethylene trinitramine (RDX) shows an endothermic peak at 205'C attributed to melting, followed by exothermic decomposition leading to a strong peak at 24O'C, and a very strong thermogravimetric peak at 260ยฐC with a mass loss of 95%. However, the mixture of RDX,
