The gasification and microexplosion characteristics of droplets of liquid gun propellants under atmospheric pressure have been experimentally investigated. Results show that the propellant explosion temperature is around 200"C and is substantially in excess of previously reported values. The droplet

The high-rate (> 100\*C sec-t) decomposition characteristics of a multicomponent liquid gun propellant containing hydroxylammonium nitrate (HAN), triethanol ammonium nitrate (TEAN), and water are described with the rapidscan FTIR thermal profiling technique. The decomposition characteristics of the
## Abstract Main topics of developing and optimizing liquid gun propellants are the suppression of oscillations, and increase in performance and an improvement of electrical conductivity. Additives for the liquid system nitromethane/methanol will be described, that will change the evaporation and r
