Thermal decomposition studies on double‐base propellants have been carried out in air and vacuum using differential scanning calorimetric, thermogravimetric and mass spectrometric techniques. Low temperature (90 °C–170 °C) decomposition seems to involve diffusion controlled process, the mechanism in air and vacuum being different. High temperature (170 °–205 °C) decomposition involves bond breakage.
