摘要:
A method for chemically neutralizing a nitroarene explosive uses a nitroarene hypergol having an α,ω-amine and an accelerant that is applied to the explosive composition to cause ignition of the explosive composition. The method may be used to neutralize active mines.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a liquid or gel propellant comprising an oxidizer and a fuel, said fuel preferably having a vapor pressure not exceeding 10 millimeters of mercury at 25.degree. C. and being selected from the group consisting of hydroxy-(lower alkyl)-hydrazine, dihydroxy-(lower alkyl)hydrazine, cyanoethylhydrazine, 1-methyl-1-cyanoethylhydrazine, 1,1-dimethyl-2-cyanoethylhydrazine, and combinations thereof. Also claimed is a method of making the propellant.
摘要:
Norbornadiene and 1,3-pentadiene are catalytically codimerized to an olefinic codimer using a three-component homogeneous catalytic system of cobaltic or cobaltous acetylacetonate, triphenylphosphine and an alkyl aluminum chloride. The codimer, after hydrogenation, has utility as a high energy missile fuel or a diluent for a higher viscous missile fuel.
摘要:
The invention is a process for upgrading the thermostability of light metal hydrides, particularly substantially non-solvated, crystalline aluminum hydrides, which may contain small amounts of magnesium values, by contacting the hydride with an aqueous solution buffered at from about pH 6 to about 8, preferably at about 7, at a maximum temperature of about 70* C., preferably about room temperature, for a period of time and separating the so-treated product from the aqueous solution. Crystalline Aluminum hydride is useful as a fuel component in rocket propellants.
