Hydroxylamine nitrate (HAN) is an important member of the hydroxylamine family and it is a liquid propellant when combined with alkylammonium nitrate fuel in an aqueous solution. Low concentrations of HAN are used primarily in the nuclear industry as a reductant in nuclear material processing and for decontamination of equipment. Also, HAN has been involved in several incidents because of its instability and autocatalytic decomposition behavior.This paper presents calorimetric measurement for the thermal decomposition of 24 mass% HAN/water. Gas phase enthalpy of formation of HAN is calculated using both semi-empirical methods with MOPAC and high-level quantum chemical methods of Gaussian 03. CHETAH is used to estimate the energy release potential of HAN. A Reactive System Screening Tool (RSST™) and an Automatic Pressure Tracking Adiabatic Calorimeter (APTAC™) are used to characterize thermal decomposition of HAN and to provide guidance about safe conditions for handling and storing of HAN.
