Chapter VI. Specificities of Hydrazine Ignition and Explosion as an Example of Anomalous Critical Phenomena

Based on the theory of nonisothermal chain reactions developed in the studies presented in the previous chapters, an experimentally verified explanation is given for the anomalous behavior of pyrolysis and combustion of a technically important product—hydrazine. The revealed kinetic features of N2H3 radicals, which led to the unusual properties of the hydrazine-oxygen ignition peninsula, are also explained. The mechanism of easy ignition and explosion has been clarified.
