Abstract: | The oxidation of methylhydrazine (monomethylhydrazine MMH) is studied in a strictly single-phase gaseous medium, in a reconstituted
surrounding atmosphere. In order to work under such conditions, a specific apparatus was assembled to monitor the evolution
of the reactants through time. The reaction kinetics was studied at 50°C to avoid condensation of the water formed and for
O2/MMH mole ratios between 1 and 4. Under these conditions, the partial pressures of O2 were between 0.05 and 0.18 bar (4% MMH per volume). The main reaction products were monitored through time and identified
by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The products were: N2, CH4, CH3-NH-N=CH2 (formaldehyde monomethylhydrazone), NH3, H2O, CH3OH, and CH2=N-N=N-CH3 (2,3,4-triazapenta-1,3-diene). The formation of nitrosamines was not observed under these experimental conditions. The rate
laws related to the disappearance of the reagents were clearly established and can be described by 2 consecutive parallel
reactions of order 2 whose rate constants are: k
1 = 7.57 × 10−2 bar−1 min−1 and k
2 = 0.5 bar−1 min−1. Analysis of the products permitted establishing an approximated balance of the global reaction. |
