Description

Physical Sciences Inc., proposes to develop a desensitize ADN oxidizer for propellants by coating it with targeted compounds to enhance its thermal stability, its compatibility with isocyanate cured binder systems, and its insensitivity to moisture and UV. Our coated ADN ingredient will allow for a viable oxidizer ingredient to be incorporated in propellants and explosives to boost performance. In Phase I, we have proposed to characterize the efficacy of our coated ADN particles and identify candidates for scale-up in Phase II.
