Unraveling the initial steps of the ignition chemistry of the hypergolic ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium cyanoborohydride ([EMIM][CBH]) with nitric acid (HNO3) exploiting chirped pulse triggered droplet merging

Abstract

A new container-less droplet merging method in combination with high-speed imaging and spectroscopy were employed to explore the chemistry in the initial stages of ignition in a hyperogolic ionic liquid – oxidizer reaction.
