1. An oxidizer composition consisting essentially of a liquid-phase mixture selected from the group consisting of(i) ammonium nitrate and hydroxylammonium nitrate;
- (ii) hydrazinium nitrate and hydroxylammonium nitrate;
(iii) ammonium nitrate, hydrazinium nitrate and hydroxylammonium nitrate; and
(iv) ammonium nitrate, hydrazinium nitrate and lithium nitrate;
the components of each said mixture being in relative amounts such that the lowest temperature at which each said mixture is entirely liquid is within the range of about 30°
C. or below.

Abstract
Inorganic nitrate oxidizers are combined in novel eutectic compositions which place the oxidizers in liquid form at ambient temperatures. These liquid combinations are then used in the preparation of a wide variety of energetic formulations, notably solution and emulsion propellants.
