The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 0.7 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 0.7 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.1 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00016 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.18 SJR: 0.313 SNIP: 0.6 CiteScore™:: 1.6 H-Index: 16

Краткое описание

Aluminum powder is used as an additive in composite propellants to increase the specific impulse. However, the use of aluminum increases the two-phase losses and slag formation in the rocket motor. This study uses Viton as a coating for the aluminum powder for enhancing its reactivity to overcome these drawbacks. Viton-coated aluminum powder exhibited an enhanced reactivity over the uncoated powder. This Viton-coated aluminum demonstrated an increase of around 25% in the burn rates compared to uncoated aluminum when used in the composite solid propellant. The end mix viscosity of the propellant mixture remains constant with the prolonged mixing with the use of Viton compared to an increased viscosity observed with polytetrafluoroethylene as an additive.
