Theoretical Kinetics of Radical-Radical Reaction NHṄH + ṄH and Its Implications for Monomethylhydrazine Pyrolysis Mechanism.

Significant discrepancies were observed between the experiments and the simulations for ṄH time-histories in monomethylhydrazine pyrolysis with the robust mechanism proposed by Pascal and Catoire. The rate of formation analyses for ṄH indicated the significance of the reaction NHṄH + ṄH = HNN + NH, which has not been well-defined. In , calculations were performed for the theoretical description of the NHṄH + ṄH chemistry.
