Computationally Based Design and Screening of Hypergolic Multiamines

چکیده

Seeking to identify structural features of saturated, (all) tertiary, alkyl multiamines (STAMs) that correlate with hypergolic ignition delays, conformers of STAMS whose ignition delays have been measured were established through density functional theory-based calculations. Examined from the standpoint of lone pair/(C-N and C-C) bond orientations, a correlation is suggested. Conformers of 1,3-dimethylimidizolidine (DMIZ), a notional hypergol whose synthesis and testing was originally recommended for other reasons, were therefore characterized. On the basis of the characterization, it is expected to have a short ignition delay. Moreover, estimates of DMIZ’s density specific impulse indicate that its performance will be competitive with hydrazine-based fuels. The lowest energy structure of a second notional hypergol—1,3-dimethylhexahydropyrimidine (DMHHP)—has a lone pair/lone pair orientation unlike any found in previously tested STAMs. The results suggest that the potential of STAMs as replacements for hydrazines in hypergolic propulsion systems may not yet be fully realized, and that the synthesis and testing of DMIZ and DMHHP should be pursued.

Liquid propulsion systems have effective role in implementation of space and military mission due to high performance and specific impulse. Liquid propellants are divided into two categories: hypergolic and non-hypergolic propellants. Non-hypergolic propellants need an igniter system to provide the initial energy for propellant ignition compared with hypergolic propellants. Since failure in ign...
