APMP (Ammonium Perchlorate Composite Propellant)

APMP (Ammonium Perchlorate Composite Propellant) is a type of rocket fuel made from a mixture of ammonium perchlorate (an oxidizer), a binder (like rubber), and a fuel such as aluminum powder. These components are combined into a solid grain that ignites to produce high-pressure gases, propelling a rocket forward. APMP is valued for its high energy content, stability, and consistent performance, making it common in space launch vehicles and military rockets. Its composite structure allows for tailored thrust and improved safety compared to traditional solid propellants.
