The global Double Base Propellant Market continues to demonstrate steady growth, with its valuation reaching USD 2.54 billion in 2023. According to the latest industry analysis, the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.10%, reaching approximately USD 3.34 billion by 2032. This growth is primarily driven by increasing defense expenditures worldwide and the continuous demand for high-performance propulsion systems in military and aerospace applications.
Double base propellants, composed of nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin, are essential for artillery shells, rockets, and large-caliber ammunition. Their superior energy density compared to single-base propellants makes them indispensable in defense applications. As military modernization programs accelerate across key economies, manufacturers are investing in R&D to enhance performance characteristics while addressing environmental concerns.
