Analysis of Rocket Propellants

Hugh E. Malone

This book contains quantitative analytical procedures for high energy chemical compounds, which find application as rocket propellants either as oxidizers or as fuels. Both chemical and physical methods arc presented, with the emphasis on the former. Descriptions of field samplers, sampling procedures, and laboratory sampling techniques are presented and discussed. Methods for the analysis of contaminants and additives, either as impurities or as compounds added to produce certain property changes, are presented.
