5 LIQUID PROPELLANTS MONOPROPELLANTS : Hydrazine, Hydrogen peroxyde BIPROPELLANTS : FUELS : OXIDIZERS : Kerosine, ethanol Liquid hydrogen, UDMH, MMH, Hydrazine Liquid oxygen, N2O4, Hydrogen peroxyde 5
6 HYBRID PROPELLANTS liquid propellant : oxidizer - solid propellant : fuel (solid oxidizers are problematic and lower performing than liquid oxidizers) oxidizers : gaseous or liquid oxygen nitrous oxide. fuels : polymers (e.g.polyethylene), cross-linked rubber (e.g.htpb), liquefying fuels (e.g. paraffin). Solid fuels (HTPB or paraffin) allow for the incorporation of highenergy fuel additives (e.g.aluminium). 6
