A method of installing a polysiloxane insulation in an interceptor rocket motor comprises of applying an adhesive composition, which is compatible with a composite rocket motor case and polysiloxane with which it interfaces; applying a polysiloxane in an uncured state and any added reinforcing fibers to the inside surface of rocket motor case containing the adhesive coating; curing the polysiloxane to form a polysiloxane insulation; casting a solid propellant composition on the cured siloxane insulation; and curing the cast solid propellant composition to complete the method of installing a polysiloxane insulation. The polysiloxane insulation enables the use of a wider selection of reinforcing fibers, even fragile fibers, since the fibers can be incorporated with less energy and the mixing and extruding of the polysiloxane does not destroy the fiber length.
