Degradation processing history

The composite propints are not the only ones subject to degradation processes which affect shelf-life, although they are relative newcomers to propint history. In NC-based pro pints, NC decomposes slowly to release NOa which reacts catalytically to hasten the degradation in physical and ballistic properties. To slow the process, stabilizing agents such1 as diphenylamine or 2-... 

A synthesis of the mathematical modeling and optimization of the process was presented by Strumillo et al. [29,32] and Kamifiski and Strumillo [39]. A natural starting point for the analysis is that the rate constant k depends on the history of the drying process, which should be known if the description of the degradation processes is to be complete. Thus, the following equations are obtained experimentally ...
