Abstract:The energetic capabilities of three energy-intensive components containing furoxan cycles and azo groups are studied. These compounds are assessed as the main fillers of composite solid rocket fuels. It is shown that the energy efficiency of the considered compounds increases in the following order: 3,3'-di(4-nitrofuroxan-3-yl)-5,5'-azo-1,2,4-oxadiazole (I) < (Z)-tris ([1,2,5]oxadiazolo) [3,4-c:3',4'e:3'',4''-g][1,2]diazocine 1,4,11-trioxide (III) < 4,4'-dinitro-3,3'-azofuroxan (II).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
