ABSTRACT The development of flexible, elastomeric-based, solid propellant rocket motor case insulation is discussed. The effect on insulation properties of type of asbestos, of liquid versus solid elastomers and of methods of dispersing fibrous compounding ingredients, are reported. Oxyacetylene torch and static motor firing test data for some of the better insulation materials developed, as well as for souie commercial materials, are presented. The torch test, the principle screening tool used in this study, conforms to the test currently being standardized by the Flame Ablation Test Group of Section III-L of ASTM Committee D-20. A material with 40 percent elongation, 1.34 gm/cc density, performance ind3x of 95 cm2 sec/gm and erosion rate of 2.0 mils/sec was the most promising insulation developed. The material is a 55/45 butadiene/acrylonitrile compound containing phenol furfural resin, asbestos and oxyazoline wetting agent. It has been satisfactorily bonded to aluminum and to steel by conventional bonding agent. The thermal properties of this vulcanizate are not affected by oven aging for one week at 70 0 C.

INSULATION FOR SOLID PROPELLANT

ROCKET MOTORS
OBJECT To develop improved, flexible, thermal case insulation

for solid propellant rocket motors. INTRODUCTION

The need for flexfl rocket motor case insulation nas Elastomers have played an been well established, important role in meeting this need, as evidenced by the many types of elastomeric-based insulations which have been developed for use in solid propellant missiles. The wide spectrum of commercially available insulation ranges from but lightly filled rubbers with excellent flexibility compounds to highly loaded resistance, minimal ablation with little Alexlbility but outstanding resistance to the high temperatures and erosive gases found within rocket motors. Present day elastcmeric insulations are not considered adequate for future neeas. especially needs related to the It is anticipated that longer use of end burning grains. burning times at higher temperatures will necessitate more thermally resistant insulations and that higher internal A pressures will require higher degrees of flexibility. continuing need exists frr lighter weight materials, I-,appears that maximum flexibility and resistance to the environments within rocket motors are mutually exclusive properties. insofar as rubber-based insulations

are concerned,

Earlier work attainable only It the expense of the other. at this Arsenal, -8,9) as well as more recent studies, has led to the development of r-'bber-based insulations having a compromise In these two properties, namely, the highest degree of ablative resistance which could be attained together with flexibility which, when measured in terms of Results of these elongation, amounts to 20 to 50 percent. studies have led to the following conclusions: combination for 1. By far the cost effective filler imparting ablation resistance to rubber vulcanizates is a combination of a phenolic resin and long fiber asbestos.

2.

This filler combination is most effective in a

content, butadiene/acrylonitrile elastomer.

Of the more than 400 combinations of elastomers,

fillers

and other compounding ingredients tested, none has led to a material having a better compromise between flexibility resistance than that exhibited by the nitrileand abltion phenolic resin-asbestos fiber system. 3. The degree of ablation resistance of this, or any other asbestos-containing rubber compound, is directly related to the fiber length of the asbestos in the finished product. These findings largely influenced the direction of Minimum effort has been effort described in this report. devoted to seeking more effective combinations of rubber and fillers. Major emphasis has been placed on developing means for incorporating long fiber asbestos into rubberresin matrices without significantly reducing fiber length. PROCEDURE Insulation resistance was determined with an oxyacetylene torch test (Figure 1) using the conditons cited in Table I. The equipment and procedures duplicate those of the test currently in the final stages of standardization by the Flame Ablation Test Group of Section III-L of ASTM Committee D-20. The effectiveness of candidate insulation materials (1) the temperature was meawured by two test criteria; rise on the back side of the specimen while the front side was exposed to the oxyacetylene torch flame and (2) the time required for the flame to burn through the These criteria are reported as performance specimen. The index, indices and erosion rates, respectively. referred to as P 2 0 0 , is computed by dividing the time (seconds) required for the specimen back side to reach 200 0 C. by the original specimen thickness (centimeters) The erosion rate, and by the specimen specific gravity E, is computed by dividing the original specimen thickness It should be noted that (mils) by the burn through time. high values of P 2 0 0 and low values for E are indicative of Unless otherwise noted, the good insulation properties. performance indices and erosion rates reported are the average of four test results Rock Island Arsenal Laboratory has been an active The torch member of the aforementioned ASTM Test Group. test facility at this Laboratory was among those utilized The round robin results showed in a recent round robin. an average variance among laboratories of less than 5% for The Rock Island Arsenal eacn of the Iwo test criteria. test facility produced results well within this variance.

Several materials which exhibited excellent to the torch test were evaluated (see Table VII) motor firings conducted b,, the AtlantIc Research and the Allegheny Ballistics Laboratory at their test facilities.

The major compounding ingredients for each material tested may be found in the tables pertaining to the material. Curing systems are given in Appendix I. Test specimens were compression molded in a four cavity mold. The liquid polymer-based ccmpounds were mixed in a two bladed sigma type mixer (Figure 2), with mi.xing arms operating at differential speeds. All solid polymerbased compounds were mixed on a two roll rubber mill. Stress-strain properties were determined in accordance with applicable ASTM(lO) procedures RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Previous evalua.cn( 9 ' of several types of inorganic and organic fibers had shown that asbestc3 was the most effective for imparting thermal resistance tc rubber vulcanizates Curren, studies were made to determine the effect of the type cf asbestcs on the properties of insulation materials Amosile, crocadolite and chrysotile asbestos of approximately equal fiber length "major concentration of fiber lengths. 3/4 to 1 inch long) were evaluated in a nitrile r.ibber..phenol.c resin based compcuind Chrysotile samples from three different suppllers were included The results in Table II show that the three

chrysotile-based vulcanizates differ from one another considerably, but that all three are superior to either
the amosite or crocidolite-based insulations. The supe-

riority of chrysotile is attributed to its flexibility (both amosite and crocidolite are brittle and tend to suffer fiber breakdown during compounding), higher specific
heat and fusion temperature, lower density and higher percent of bound waterHereinafter, the word "Asbestos" 4 64-3158

The problem of obtaining a uniform dispersion of long asbestos fibers in a rubber matrix while et the same time minimizing the reduction in fiber length was attacked through the use of the following classes of materials: (1P wetting agents, to wet the asbestos fiber and thus facilitate fiber dispersion; (2) plasticizers, to soften the rubber matrix; (3) liquid polymers, to reduce shearing forces which prevail when solid polymers are mixed; (4) s lvents, to dissolve the unvulcanized rubber prior to the asbestos addition. Evaluationsof wetting agents were made as shown in The wetting agents were added to the mixture Table 1I1. Although most of the wetting jus# prior to the asbestos. agents tested were useful in dispersing the asbestos, However, oxyazoline not all improved insulation properties. #1. a heterocyclic cationic wetting agent, produced vulcanizates with excellent thermal properties.
