Eco-Oxidizers for Composite Propellants: Ammonium Nitrate and Ammonium Dinitramide

Abstract

Digital Object Identifier 10.32754/JMT.2020.2.05 31 1Abstract—The current paper is aimed at providing an overview of the existing literature in the field of composite solid propellants to highlight some environmentally-friendly oxidizers that could successfully substitute ammonium perchlorate. In this regard, two oxidizers, ammonium nitrate and ammonium dinitramide, are considered in terms of performances and safety parameters.
