RCS Information Release
11/9/06CEDAR CITY, Utah USA -- RCS is releasing three new blends of Ammonium Perchlorate (AP) oxidizer for the experimental rocket community: APB200, APB400 and APB400200.
RCS AP Blends use a combination of coarse and fine AP in optimum particle size ratios and weight distributions to help achieve a high level of processability and castability with HTPB composite propellants. Experimenters will be able to formulate castable propellant with up to
88 weight % solids using these AP Blends.RCS part no. APB200 is a blend of 200 micron and ground AP intended for medium to fast burning rate propellant compositions. APB400 is a blend of 400 micron and ground AP designed for slower burning propellant formulations. APB400200 is a blend of 400 micron, 200 micron and ground AP for extremely high performance and high solids compositions.
In addition, RCS will be offering "standard" 200 and 400 micron AP w/TCP anti-caking agent.
All standard AP and AP Blends will be shipped in 2-gallon UN1H2 poly buckets containing 20 pounds net weight each. Please visit the RCS website at
