ABSTRACT:
A composite/metal hybrid rocket motor case made by rolling sheets of continuous, unidirectional fiber reinforcement pre-impregnated with an uncured, thermoset or thermoplastic resin about the mandrel using a tube rolling machine to form a liner having discontinuous layers of fiber reinforcement. The liner is inserted into a metal shell configured with elongated slots. A mold is placed around the shell with a bladder placed within the liner. The bladder within the mold is then pressurized to force the liner against the metal shell while the contents of the mold are heated. As the liner cures, it bonds to the shell. Fins, launch lugs, domes and bulkheads may be attached to the metal shell by known attachment methods.
