  • Patent number: 5753853
    Abstract: Liquid elastomer-based propellant having incorporated therein organo-titanate compounds are described. The organo-titanates have positive ballistic and physical effects on the propellants, serving to reduce burn rate exponents and overall burn rates, as well as increasing the tensile strength and elasticity of the propellant. Organo-phosphate and pyrophosphate titanates are used as the preferred organo-titanates.
