| Novel catalysts capable of rendering both polar and non-polar organic fuels hypergolic with rocket-grade hydrogen peroxide are disclosed. |
|
| The Titan uses Aerojet-General LR87 and LR91 engines burning liquid hypergolic propellants that ignite spontaneously on contact. |
|
| The ignition model predicts the amount of hypergolic needed for successful ignition. |
|
| Other onboard power sources serve as latent explosion triggers, including batteries, other pressurized systems, fuel cells and hypergolic fuels. |
|
| The testing of the hypergolic performance of the formulations can be achieved without gelling. |
|
| It should be noted that pyrophoricity is a special case of a hypergolic reaction because the oxidizing agent is restricted to atmospheric oxygen. |
|
| The oxidizer used with hypergolic fuel is usually nitrogen tetroxide or nitric acid. |
|
| Articles consisting of a hypergolic fuel contained in a cylinder fitted with one or more nozzles. |
|
| The two fuel components are hypergolic, producing a violent reaction on contact. |
|
| More recently two upper stages, the Block DM using cryogenic propellant and the more popular Briz M using hypergolic propellant, have been developed for the Proton launcher. |
|
| Hypergolic fuels are extremely toxic and thus difficult to handle. |
