Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Research into next-generation propellants with green fuel–oxidizer pairs to replace the currently used highly toxic hydrazine–N2O4 system has attracted widespread attention. Ionic liquids (ILs) and hydrogen peroxide have demonstrated their feasibility as a green fuel and an oxidizer, respectively; however, the realisation of effective auto-ignition is the key problem. In this study, a new strategy to trigger the auto-ignition of IL fuels with hydrogen peroxide by using a unique copper-containing liquid as the promoter is developed. The copper-containing promoter is designed such that its cationic structure is similar to that of the IL fuel. Based on the principle of “like dissolves like,” the fuel and promoter can be miscible at any ratio to eventually form a catalytic fuel. In addition, the physicochemical properties (e.g. density, viscosity and decomposition temperature) and performance parameters (e.g. ignition delay time and specific impulse) of the as-prepared catalytic fuel are completely characterised. Owing to their excellent hypergolic performance with a short ignition delay time of 16 ms, in combination with the advantages of simple preparation, perfect solubility and green characteristics, the catalytic fuel–oxidizer pair demonstrates promise as bipropellants for rocket applications.
