Quick Overview
The ADN-Based Non-Toxic Thruster Series includes thrusters ranging from 0.2 N to 20 N, designed to provide high-performance and environmentally friendly propulsion solutions. Two ADN-based monopropellant formulations were developed: a medium-energy propellant with a theoretical specific impulse of approximately 220 s, and a high-energy propellant reaching up to 245 s. Catalyst optimization further enhances combustion efficiency and propellant compatibility.
