Reduced Toxicity High Performance Monopropellant

Abstract

These briefing charts are an overview of reduced toxicity, high performance monopropellant. Performance of hydrazine limits spacecraft payload, range, lifetime and operational response time. The focus is to replace SOTA Hydrazine with monopropellants based on energy dense ionic liquids.
