Development of NMP‐001, A Nitromethane‐Based Green Propellant

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper discusses the development of a model monopropellant that is aimed at exploring the applicability of nitromethane‐based propellants as an alternative to hydrazine. This approach addresses the challenges faced by HAN‐, ADN‐based propulsion by being more cost‐effective while providing similar performance figures.
