Ammonium perchlorate composite propellant (APCP) is a solid-propellant rocket fuel. It differs from many traditional solid rocket propellants such as black powder or zinc-sulfur, not only in chemical composition and overall performance but also by being cast into shape, as opposed to powder pressing[broken anchor] as with black powder. This provides manufacturing regularity and repeatability, which are necessary requirements for use in the aerospace industry.
