Kinetic Stability and Propellant Performance of Green Energetic Materials [PDF]
Chemistry – A European Journal, 2010 AbstractA thorough theoretical investigation of four promising green energetic materials is presented. The kinetic stability of the dinitramide, trinitrogen dioxide, pentazole, and oxopentazole anions has been evaluated in the gas phase and in solution by using high‐level ab initio and DFT calculations.
