AbstractAmmonium dinitramide (ADN) is a promising oxidizing agent for solid rocket propellants. In situ XRD investigations of ADN and ADN suspensions have been performed in order to understand and refine the emulsion crystallization process for manufacturing spherical ADN particles (prills). The investigation revealed that the melt crystallization behavior depends on ADN quality, humidity, maximum temperature of temperature cycles, and suspension agents. Further investigations will focus on additives for controlling the mechanisms investigated, e.g., by seeding.
