Abstract This article gives a short review on compatibility and chemical stability of selected aqueous ADN HAN‐based energetic formulations. A brief introduction will outline Energetic Ionic Liquids (EILs) as new class materials with beneficial physical‐chemical properties which make them valuable for application in propulsion technologies. EILs combine the advantages e. g. low toxicity, showing equal or superior power compared to state‐of‐the‐art monopropellant hydrazine. Focus is set open access formulations that are realized advanced blends LMP‐103S, FLP‐106 LGP 1845.
