Any one of a series of nitrogenous bases, resembling the amines and produced by the reduction of certain nitroso and diazo compounds; as, methyl hydrazine, phenyl hydrazine, etc. They are derivatives of hydrazine proper, H2N.NH2, which is a doubled amido group, recently (1887) isolated as a stable, colorless gas, with a peculiar, irritating odor. As a base it forms distinct salts. Called also diamide, amidogen, (or more properly diamidogen), etc.
Storable liquid propellant used on spacecraft. Combination of hydrogen and nitrogen (N2H4).
A colourless basic liquid made from sodium hypochlorite and ammonia used chiefly as a rocket fuel
CAS Number: 302-01-2. A colorless, fuming, corrosive, strongly reducing liquid base, used primarily in fuels for rocket and jet engines. Chemical formula = N2H4. Molecular weight = 32.05 g/mol. Learn More...
(NH2NH2) A colorless, fuming, corrosive liquid that is a powerful reducing agent. NH2NH2 is used in jet and rocket fuels, and as an intermediate in the manufacture of agricultural, textile, photographic, and industrial chemicals.
In the narrow sense, a hypergolic rocket fuel used with nitrogen tetroxide. It has the chemical formula N2H4 and is highly toxic and corrosive. In the broader sense it refers to a number of chemically related hypergolic fuels including monomethyl hydrazine and unsymmetric dimethylhydrazine.
A rocket fuel which burns spontaneously with nitric acid or nitrogen tetroxide. Can also be used as a mono-propellant: when passed through an iridium-bearing catalyst, it decomposes at high temperature into constituent gases of ammonia, nitrogen and hydrogen. Used in small thrusters for orbit modification and attitude control of spacecraft. Also see MMH and UDMH.
A toxic liquid used in rocket propellant, agricultural chemicals, antioxidants, and explosives.
A liquid compound (H2NNH2) used as a strong reducing agent for transition metals and as an oxidation inhibitor for boiler feedwater and cooling water.
Hydrazine is the chemical compound with formula N2H4. This species is widely used in chemical synthesis. It is perhaps best known as a component in rocket fuel.
