Ferrocene‐based compounds are promising burning rate catalysts due to their attractive catalytic activity, flammability, and non‐toxic performance. Unfortunately, the high‐migration issue of the ferrocene‐based catalysts makes it challenging to store composite solid propellants for a long time. Ther...
