【 摘 要 】

Hydrazine and monomethylhydrazine are widely used as propellants in aerospace and defense industries.However these chemicals are volatile, carcinogenic, and sensitive to impact, which impose serious threats during their usage. In this thesis, we have demonstrated two novel ways to immobilize hydrazine chemicals. In one approach hydrazine, monomethylhydrazine have been gelled using carbon dioxide. Chemical and structural properties of these gels are studied by NMR (1H, 15N, 13C), diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy, and Cryo-HRSEM.Thermal reversibility of these gels is also demonstrated. In another approach, hydrazine, monomethylhydrazine and 1,1-dimethylhydrazine are reacted with 5-methyltetrazole to form ionic liquids. Synthesis of novel tetrazole monomers and polymers, .and new method for encapsulating sodium azide have also reported in this thesis
