Abstract

AbstractHydroxyl‐terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) solid propellant was widely used in carrier rocket and guided missiles, owing to its excellent mechanical properties. The material of HTPB subjected to complex load such as in the process of manufacturing, storage and transportation. Therefore, the mechanical properties of HTPB had important implications for the safety of structure and service life. The purpose of this work is to study the effects of different loading ratios and loading speeds on the biaxial tension of hydroxyl‐terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) solid propellant with a proper kind of biaxial tensile specimen and a high volume fraction three dimensional particle filling model of the material. The proper kind of biaxial tensile specimen with which the stresses in its central part could be obtained with the loads acted on each loading direction was designed and used in the study, and the strains in its central parts were obtained with digital image correlation (DIC) method. The stress‐strain relationship at each direction could be obtained by experiments. Experimental results indicated that the loading speed remarkably influenced the biaxial tensile behaviors of HTPB propellant at room temperature and at different loading ratios. The finite element simulation results demonstrated the accuracy of the biaxial experiment. Based on the experimental results, the particle debonding in biaxial experiments were analyzed and an equivalent Poisson's ratio parameter was proposed to evaluate the degree of debonding. The highly volume fraction three dimensional particle filling model provides a good simulation with experimental results and the equivalent Poisson's ratio parameter can conveniently and accurately determine the debonding of particles which is meaningful to the structure integrity assessment of HTPB solid propellant.
