This paper presents results from research concerning the effect of nitrated hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (NHTPB), content up to 3%, on the physicochemical, physico-mechanical and ballistic properties of heterogeneous rocket propellants based on hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB), ammonium perchlorate (AP) and aluminium powder. The results of research on the rheological and thermal properties of the tested solid rocket propellants are also presented. These studies have shown that 2% rubber NHTPB, contained within a composite solid propellant, increases the energy and ballistic parameters of the propellant.
