Fourier transform Raman (FTR) spectroscopy employing near‐IR laser radiation at 1.06 μm as the scattering source was used to obtain Raman spectra of some neat energetic materials and several propellant formulations containing those energetic materials. It is shown that only crystalline components of propellant formulations are easily detected by FTR spectroscopy. Also, FTR spectroscopy is shown to be a useful tool in determining the principle ingredient(s) in many non‐colored propellant formulations.
