Abstract

Procedures for qualitative and quantitative analysis of microimpurities of alkylhydrazines and their transformation products in hydrocarbon rocket propellants Naftil, Syntin, and Detsilin by gas and liquid chromatography with on-line and off-line mass-spectrometric detection were developed. Reliable detection of an unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine impurity in Naftil multicomponent propellant and in its mixtures with other hydrocarbon propellants is possible in the form of thiosemicarbazides by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry.
