Ionic liquids (ILs) have been regarded as green hypergolic materials since 2008, and
hundreds of hypergolic ionic liquids have been reported thus far. However, only few have …

Hybrid rocket propulsion can contribute to reduce launch costs by simplifying engine design
and operation. Hypergolic propellants, ie igniting spontaneously and immediately upon …

Ionic liquids are promising candidates for future fuels in space propulsion. In this work, six
ionic liquids with thiocyanate anions are proposed as new fuel candidates with hydrogen …

A kind of phase change material (PCM)-based nanocomposite was prepared and added
into high energy propellants containing RDX as additives to investigate its effect on thermal …

A range of ionic liquids (ILs) have been synthesized and modeled to better understand the
role of the cation in the ignition of hypergolic ionic liquids. Vogelhuber et al. have shown by …

In this study, in situ infrared spectroscopy techniques and thermogravimetric analysis
coupled with mass spectrometry (TGA–MS) are employed to characterize the reactivity of the …

自燃推进剂作为火箭和太空飞行器的动力源, 是空天推进技术研究领域的重点.

To develop the next generation of hypergolic, ionic-liquid-based fuels, it is important to
understand the fundamental reaction mechanisms for the oxidation of ionic liquids (ILs). We …

We demonstrate the unprecedented ability to induce hypergolic behavior, ie rapid and
spontaneous ignition upon contact with an oxidizer, in non-hypergolic metal fuels by …

One of the disadvantages of biodiesel used as aviation fuel is the decrease of energy
density. Adding aluminum powder particles can significantly improve the energy density of …
