Studies were conducted using an environmental chamber, a packed flow-reactor, and a new type of laminar flow reactor designed to minimize wall effects. Air-oxidation rates in a 6515-liter fluorocarbon-film environmental chamber were found to be much slower than the loss due to adsorption and permeation through the walls. Half-lives of 40, 19, and 60 hours were found for hydrazine, MMH, and UDMH, respectively. Metal surfaces were found to increase the rates of oxidation, and bayerite-coated aluminum (corroded aluminum) was found to be a particularly effective oxidation catalyst for hydrazine. 收起
