Abstract

Abstract Liquid propellants (LP) have received interest as a potential replacement for various solid propellants used in military guns. Analysis of these liquid propellants for both compositional and long-term stability and storage is necessary. Capillary ion electrophoresis (CIE) offers a means of rapidly analyzing for these components. CIE is a capillary electrophoretic technique which has been developed for the rapid analysis of low-molecular weight inorganic and organic ions. Cation analysis of liquid gun propellant samples was done. Analysis of hydroxylammonium nitrate (HAN), triethanolammonium nitrate (TEAN), and diethanolammonium nitrate (DEAN), a degradation product, were accomplished with analysis time of less than 6 minutes.
