The paper addresses to the experimental investigations of the combustion of test samples of solid fuels based on paraffin and boron-containing compounds and combustion catalysts in the gaseous oxygen subsonic flow. Tests were carried out at the atmospheric pressure and oxygen flow velocity from 27 to 31 m/s. The mass combustion rate of the samples increased by 28% when ammonia borane was added to paraffin, and by 16% when sodium borohydride with a bit of solid oxidizer was added. The biggest amplification of the mass combustion rate using the catalyst reached 5%.
