Previously, the Air Force has been investigating high performance salt-based, liquid monopropellants for low thrust spacecraft applications. The focus of this effort has been on finding a reduced toxicity monopropellant with a predicted density performance impulse greater than 50% over hydrazne. During this same period of time, NASA has been investigating reusable launch vehicle (KLV) concepts and has considered using monopropellants in this application. Anticipating a possible RLV payoff, NASA and the Air Force are working on a trade study to gauge the potential applicability of the salt-based monopropellants in booster applications. This study will include a performance comparison of salt-based monopropellants; a list of minimum safety, hazard, and physical property requirements based on operational and logistical support environments for an RLV.
