REDUCED VAPOR-TOXICITY HYDRAZINE COMPOSITION

The hydrazine-containing composition is a liquid mixture that includes from 5 mol % to 95 mol % of unprotonated hydrazine selected from hydrazine, monomoethylhydrazine, dimethylhydrazine, ethylhydrazine, and combinations thereof, and from 5 mol % to 90 mol % of at least one oxygen-containing solute or solvent selected from acetals, acetyls, alcoxyamines having two or more carbon atoms, aldehydes, amides, amides and particularly carboxamides, aminoalcohols, carbazides, semicarbazides, carbon-containing nitrate salts comprising cations with logarithmic dissociation constants less than 9.2, hydroxyalkyl nitro compounds, hydroxyalkylhydrazines, carbonates, carboxylic acids and anhydrides of carboxylic acids, esters, ethers, ketals, ketones, mono- and poly-alcohols in 31% or greater mass fraction, nitrate esters, nitrosamines, sugars, and combinations thereof. The unprotonated hydrazine has a first vapor pressure and the oxygen-containing solvent has a second vapor pressure that is less than the first vapor pressure.
