LMP-103S is an environmentally benign monopropellant based on the energetic material Ammonium DiNitramide (ADN). It offers a ≥30% density impulse improvement as compared to monopropellant hydrazine, while significantly reducing handling risk and costs, resulting in up to 72% cost reductions at launch site[1].
