VOLKER GETTWERT is an academic who published a paper in 2017 entitled Burning Behavior of ADN-Based Propellants Loaded with Al-Mg Mechanically Activated Powders. VOLKER GETTWERT published this work as part of a team: CRISTILLI, Francesco. Here is a description of this work: The experimental study presented in this paper aims at investigating the influence of mechanically activated Al-Mg powders on the burning behavior of ADN-based composite propellants. Three different powders were employed: a non-treated blend of Al and Mg and two others batches produced with different intensities of the activation process. As binder, hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) was used, with and without the metal fuel. The propellants were tested in a window bomb pressurized by nitrogen. The burning rate was measured over a pressure range from 4 to 13 MPa using a digital high-speed video camera. The temperatures of the hot gases and particles were derived from the emission spectra in the UV/Vis/NIR range. Along with the burning behavior and the powder.
