Description

Traditional manufacturing methods for producing warheads, propellants, and pyrotechnic systems are timely and costly. Current production methods include cast-cure, melt-cast, powder molding, and machining. A rigorous design study that matches the appropriate hardware and engineering solutions to the propellant manufacturing process is proposed to increase the likelihood of a successful modernization effort. The overall objective of this Phase I SBIR work is to conduct a detailed survey and technical evaluation of mixing technologies suitable for production of high energetic solid materials for large gas generator propellants.
