Decreasing the hygroscopicity of ammonium dinitramide (ADN) through cocrystallization
To decrease the hygroscopicity of ADN—a energetic oxidizer, this study developed a new cocrystal composed of ADN and 18C6 (18-crown-6) at a 1:1 M ratio through cocrystallization using the solvent evaporation method.

Decomposition Pathways of Ammonium Dinitramide (ADN) and its HNO3-Clusters Elucidated by DFT-Calculations [PDF]
Abstract Ammonium dinitramide (ADN) may serve as a ‘green’ oxidizer for rocket propellants since it provides chlorine free and minimum signature exhaust gases. However, stability issues and an erratic decomposition behaviour limit its non‐questionable general usability. Nitric acid (HNO3) is a decomposition product of ADN and is known to accelerate the

A Smart Access to the Dinitramide Anion - The Use of Dinitraminic Acid for the Preparation of Nitrogen-Rich Energetic Copper(II) Complexes. [PDF]
The dinitramide anion was made accessible for complexation through the use of dinitraminic acid and basic copper(II) carbonate. The in situ prepared copper dinitramide was complexed by 13 different highly endothermic tri‐ and tetrazole ligands. By the choice of ligand, complexes were obtained that possess thermal stability exceeding 200 degrees Celsius,
