Most
state-of-the-art
composite
solid
propellants
(CSPs)
are
composed
of
a
combination
of
chemical
ingredients, namely, hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB; prepolymer), a diisocyanate
(curative),
plasticizer,
antioxidants,
a
burning-rate
(BR)
modifier,
a catalyst, and an ammonium perchlorate (AP) oxidizer. 17 The cured polymer, in addition to
being
a
fuel,
acted
as
a
binder
for
the
particulate
AP
to
achieve
good
mechanical
properties.
Among
various
types
of
catalysts, transition-metal oxides, ferrocene, and ferrocene derivatives 810 have been widely
used
to
enhance
the BRs of CSPs. A large number of polymeric ferrocene derivatives produced from different
precursor
monomers are also found in the literature 20
The
ferrocene-based
burn-rate
catalysts have more advantages, such as better microscopic distribution, better fluidity, and
better
ignitability
of
the
propellant,
compared
with
other
conventional
burn-rate
catalysts.15
However,
the
migration
of
ferrocene
derivatives
in
the
propellants
which
occurred
upon
curing
and
during
storage
may
lead
to
malfunctioning
of
the
propellant
in
rocket
flights.16,17
The
immobilization
of
ferrocene
moiety
to
the
propellant
binder
by
covalently
linking
is an effective way to avoid this problem 21
OLID propellant is one of the most signi in rockets. The burning rate of propellant is a vital

The
history
of
solid

can
be
traced
back
to
the
thirteenth
century,
when

Modern
propellant
technology
was
developed
after
the
synthesis
and
application
of
nitrocellulose
and
nitroglycerine.
During
the
1910s
to
1950s,
propellant
technology
played
quite
a
significant
role
and
rapidly
developed.
Afterwards,
along
with
other
high
technologies,
solid
propellant
technology
was
applied
not
only
in
the
military
but
also
in
the
civil
field.
In
the
twenty-first
century,
the
development
of
missiles,
aviation
and
spaceflight
required
solid
propellant
technology
to
meet
more
complex standards, which further promoted its development. 7
