The report is a revised version of a lecture on aging of rocket motors. For several years rocket motors and propellants from missiles have been tested on aging properties. On storing of rocket motors with solid propellants properties can change in such a way that the function of the motors can deteriorate. At static firings of motors at different temperatures pressure and thrust are measured. Properties of propellants are measured at laboratory tests on test pieces taken from the motors. Test methods have been worked out and standardized. Some examples of results from tests on motors and propellants are given.
