| Title: | Thermal and fracture behaviour of rocket motor materials / by Kim Martin Ide. |
| Author: | Ide, Kym Martin |
| Issue Date: | 1997 |
| School/Discipline: | Dept. of Chemical Engineering |
| Abstract: | This thesis analyses the way in which ageing, temperature and strain-rate affect the thermal and fracture properties of the polymeric components in the PICTOR rocket motor. The change in the thermal expansion behaviour of the propellant, inhibitor, epoxy and insulation is investigated. |
