In this study, we carried out the study on the combustion characteristics of HTPB/AP propellants with Al and Zr as fuel metal in order to develop the solid propellant with high burning rate. The major combustion characteristics of propellant were investigated as measuring of the burning rate and pressure exponent, and the HTPB/AP solid propellants were prepared with introducing Butacene as burning rate catalyst for the enhancement of burning rate. The propellant with Al and Zr was demonstrated the improvement of propellant performance and combustion characteristic.
