Abstract

Hydroxyl terminated epoxidized natural rubber (HTENR) was prepared by oxidative degradation of epoxidized natural rubber (ENR) with cobalt (II) acetylacetonate (co (II) aa) as a chemical agent in toluene as a solvent. Different of cobalt amount and reaction time used to study the effect on molecular weight. It was found that the number average molecular weight (Mn) and weight average molecular weight (Mw) depended on the reaction time and cobalt amount. Burning rate of solid propellant based on HTENR binder is 2.93mm/s which is approximately same with HTPB binder with 3.0mm/s. As a conclusion, HTENR binder is suitable to be used as a binder for solid rocket propellant.
