I`ve made what seems to be a great rocket fuel!, for solid rocket motors (model), the only problem is that it detonates :(

I need a binder/regulator to make it Viable.

I`ve tried plasticising it (Blu-Tak and petrol, then collect the liquid when the grit drops out) that just makes a plastic explosive :(

I`ve tried solidifying it in Styrene, but then it doesn`t burn reliably is too much used, and not enough and crumbles or blows up :(

 

maybe a good idea to add this: DDT= Deflagration to Detonation Transition.

 

any ideas?

the fuel is an organic peroxide, HMTD (HexaMethyleneTriperoxideDiamine) it has a detonation velocity of near 6000 meters per second, but at a low density in the open it will just flash off it seemed ideal as it leaves no solid wastes and Is quiet easy to make.
