Replacement of Hydrazine: Overview and First Results of the H2020 Project Rheform
نویسنده
چکیده
The goal of the EU Horizon2020 project Rheform is the replacement of hydrazine with liquid propellants based on ammonium dinitramide (ADN) for orbital and launcher propulsion systems. Hydrazine and its derivatives are the standard propellants for spacecraft propulsion system since the 1960s, but they are highly toxic and carcinogenic. New regulations will lead to restriction of their use in the near to mid-term. The first part of this article gives an overview on ADN-based propellants and of the Rheform project. The second part contains the results of thermochemical calculations showing the influence of propellant formulation on performance and combustion chamber temperatures.

We have performed a density functional theory investigation on the structural and electronic properties of pristine and Nitrogen-doped TiO2 anatase nanoparticles as the adsorbents for removal and degradation of hydrazine molecules in the environment. We have presented the most stable adsorption configurations and examined the interaction of hydrazine molecule with these doped and undoped nanopa...

New pyrimido [4, 5-e] [1, 3, 4]thia- diazin-7-yl] hydrazines were synthesized via the cyclocondensation of alkyl-2-phenylhydrazinecarbodithioates as a binucleophile with 5-bromo-2,4-dichloro-6-methylpyrimidine as a bielectrophile , and replacement of C-7 chloro atom by hydrazine in ethanol as the solvent . This method has advantages over methods currently described in the literature for the con...
