Zusammenfassung:This report summarizes the efforts on continued stability testing of aluminum-hydrazine-carbopol combinations and preparation for formulation and characterization of liquid metalized propellants containing LM-2 and LMH-2. It also summarizes the analytical and experimental investigation of the N2H4/N2O4 propellant system which was undertaken to determine its reaction kinetics at rocket chamber conditions. The background atmospheric flame studies on H2/NO2 and NH3/O2 are complete and the results are reported. Also reported is the engine performance (characteristic velocity C) of the liquid-liquid combustor and the preliminary reaction mechanism for the N2H4/N2O4 propellant system. Preliminary background information is given on a heat-of-formation study on XeF6. (Author)
