Abstract
Abstract The influence of two selected bistetrazoles, 5,5′‐bis(1H‐tetrazolyl)‐amine (BTA) and 5,5′‐hydrazinebistetrazole (HBT), on the combustion behavior of a typical triple‐base propellant was investigated. Seven propellant formulations, one reference and six others incorporating 5 %, 15 %, and 25 % of either HBT or BTA compounds, respectively, were mixed and extruded into a cylindrical, no perforations, geometry. The resulting propellants showed high burning rates, up to 93 % higher than the reference formulation at 100 MPa. However, the increase in burning rates came at the cost of higher burning rate dependency on pressure, with a pressure exponent as high as 1.4 for certain formulations. HBT‐containing propellants showed notably lower flame temperature when compared to the reference formulation, with a flame temperature reduction of up to 461 K for the propellant containing 25 % HBT. The thermal behavior of the propellants was also investigated through DSC experiments. The addition of bistetrazoles provided lower decomposition temperatures than the pure nitrogen‐rich materials, indicating that the two compounds probably react readily with the −ONO 2 groups present in the nitrocellulose and the plasticizers used in the formulation. The onset temperature of all propellants remained within acceptable ranges despite the observed decrease caused by the addition of the bistetrazole compounds.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
