Probably a single chemical and not a mix of fuel and oxidizer. The chemical is ignited and breaks down exothermically releasing gas at a rate MUCH slower than our normal BP or composite propellants.


Like the original Jetex pellets or the old Canaroc motors that has a super deep or maybe full centerbore, but had absurdly low thrust for a fairly long time.

From Jerry's roundabout description, especially the part about needing a larger diameter if more thrust is desired, tells me that these are end-burning motors.

The "unanswered question" is how can you have a "solid rocket propellant" ( pre-mixed oxidizer & propellant ) that does not come under BATFE "scrutiny" or HAZMAT, especially in HPR motors ?

What is the ISP of this "mystery propellant" ?

Can it also be used in non-endburning motors ?

Can its Burn Rate be increased and still remain "exempt" ?

H13ST-P
Diameter: 1.13” (29mm)
Length: 8.0”
Propellant: Super Thunder (ST)
Total impulse: 211.2 N-sec (47.48 lb.-sec)
Burn time: 15.2 sec
Peak thrust: 9.78 lbs. (43.5 N)
Delay time: Plugged
Propellant wt.: 116.4 grams (4.11 oz.)
Loaded wt.: 203.4 grams (7.18 oz.)

I would keep the rocket under one pound liftoff weight. Optimum weight is probably the motor weight, so the lighter the better.

I have no idea what JI was really up to. This is just a reference to something that may be related.
