Title: Energetic liquid monopropellant compositions containing hydrazine and methoxylamine perchlorate

Abstract: The use of methoxylamine perchlorate (CH.sub.3 ONH.sub.2.HClO.sub.4) as an dditive to exothermally decomposing liquid monopropellants such as hydrazine and hydrazine water mixtures to maintain energetic monopropellants and at the same time lower the freezing point of the monopropellants, thereby rendering the monopropellants usable in gas generators at very low temperatures.
