Abstract
This paper describes work done to study the potential hazards of glyci dyl azide polymer (GAP) based formulations. Friction and drop weight t ests were performed on various GAP propellants, GAP mixed with differe nt ingredients, and at different steps during processing of a propella nt mix. The results showed that, under certain conditions, GAP formula tions can be highly friction and impact sensitive.
