Alternative fuels are essential to enable the transition to a sustainable and environmentally
friendly energy supply. Synthetic fuels derived from renewable energies can act as energy …

The thermal decomposition reactions of ammonium nitrate (AN) are reviewed. Both neat AN
and AN containing various contaminants are examined, however quantitative kinetics results …

To address the actual disaster of thermal decomposition and explosion of ammonium nitrate
(AN), a commonly used raw material, urea was selected as an additive to study its effect on …

Glycerol trinitrate (NG) and trimethylolethane trinitrate (TMETN), as typical nitrate esters, are
important energetic plasticizers in solid propellants. With the aid of high-precision quantum …

Abstract Ammonium dinitramide (ADN;[NH 4]+[N (NO 2) 2]−) is the most promising oxidizer
for use with future green solid and liquid propellants for spacecraft applications. To allow the …

A detailed reaction mechanism for the liquid-phase decomposition of ammonium nitrate
(AN) was modeled based on ab initio calculations, and this model was employed to simulate …

Quantum chemistry calculations incorporating solvent effects were used to investigate the
decomposition pathways in molten Ammonium dinitramide (ADN). Optimized structures for …

In the present study, an overall decomposition mechanism of ammonium dinitramide (ADN)
in the gas phase via density functional theory (DFT) calculations was studied …

Ammonium nitrate (AN) is widely used as a fertilizer ingredient and an oxidizer in industrial
explosives; however, it can also cause environmental harm through the discharge of …

Thermal and evolved gas analyses were carried out to assess the decomposition of an ionic
liquid propellant consisting of ammonium dinitramide (ADN), methylammonium nitrate …
