- Federal contractNASA · Monopropellants Are Readily Ignited Or Decomposed Over A Bed Of Solid Catalyst. A Serious Limitation Of Existing Catalysts In The Ignition Of Advanced Monopropellants Is Limited Thermal Stability. The Recent Emphasis On Improved Performance Of Monopropellant Technology (e.g., With Af M315E And Lgp 1846), Has Led To The Need For Advanced Materials Possessing Exceptional Properties. Increased Specific Impulse Monopropellants Will Require Ignition Catalysts Possessing Exceptional Thermal Stability $125K
