Strontium nitrate significantly better than using glycolic acid alone. As a divalent ion with an ionic radius similar to that of Ca (1.13 vs. 0.99 A, respectively), Sr ions resembles calcium's ability to traverse calcium-selective ion channels and trigger neurotransmitter release from nerve endings. It is thus used in electrophysiology experiments. In his short story "A Germ Destroyer", Rudyard Kipling refers to strontium nitrate as the main ingredient of the titular fumigant. Strontium nitrate Strontium nitrate is an inorganic compound made of the elements strontium and nitrogen with the formula Sr(NO). This colorless solid is used as a red colorant and oxidizer
Hydroxylammonium nitrate Nitrate) and amines to form best high performance monopropellants for space propulsion systems. HAN is sometimes used in nuclear reprocessing as a reducing agent for plutonium ions. Hydroxylammonium nitrate Hydroxylammonium nitrate or hydroxylamine nitrate (HAN) is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula NHOHNO. It is a salt derived from hydroxylamine and nitric acid. In its pure form, it is a colourless hygroscopic solid. It has potential to be used as a rocket propellant either as a solution in monopropellants or bipropellants. Hydroxylammonium Nitrate (HAN) based propellants are viable and effective solution for future green propellant based missions, as it
