Shock Tube Study of the Reaction of Triethanol Ammonium Nitrate with N2O

Abstract

The ignition of triethanol ammonium nitrate in 02 and N20 has been studied in a shock tube over the temperature range from 1,300 K to 1,950 K. The ignition threshold for TEAN in 5% N20 is above 1,300 K. The reactions can be described by Arrhenius kinetics with activation energies of 17.0 kcal/mol and 20.7 kca/mol, respectively.
