A heterocyclic organic compound containing both an azo group (N=N) and a tetrazole ring system, used in energetic materials.
From 'azo-' (nitrogen double bond) + 'tetrazole' (five-membered ring with four nitrogens), a synthetic compound combining two nitrogen-rich systems for explosive and propellant applications.
Azotetrazoles are nitrogen-overloaded molecules that store tremendous chemical energy—they're used in explosives, airbag systems, and rocket propellants because they pack multiple nitrogen bonds ready to break apart and release energy.
