Abstract
The energy capabilities of solid composite propellants in which the trinitromethyl groups of the oxidizer are replaced by fluorodinitromethyl groups are examined. This replacement is shown to lead to a significant decrease in the enthalpy of formation and, consequently, the specific impulse, but at the same time slightly reduces the sensitivity and substantially increases the thermal stability. The use of such oxidizers can be useful for creating formulations with increased requirements for thermal stability.
