Abstract
Evaluation of DAG as a ballistic modifier in RDX incorporated double base propellant formulations indicated that it brings down the pressure index to 0.17 compared to 0.79 for a control composition in the pressure range 6.9-8.8Â MPa when used in combination with basic lead salycilate (BLS). The study suggests that combination of DAG and BLS need to be optimized to achieve more remarkable effects than BLS alone. It was observed that DAG does not have adverse effect on vulnerability and chemical stability of the propellant formulation.
