| It is a very powerful acidic oxidizer which can ignite or explode on contact with many materials. |
| Because it is an oxidizer, benzoyl peroxide may bleach clothing or other linens. |
| Overall efficiencies range from 30 to 80 percent, depending on the fuel and oxidizer and on the basis for the calculation. |
| The oxidizer used with hypergolic fuel is usually nitrogen tetroxide or nitric acid. |
| A third type, called a hybrid, combines a solid fuel with a liquid oxidizer. |
| This engine, like other hybrids, uses nitrous oxide as liquid oxidizer, but uses paraffin rather than rubber as the engine's solid fuel. |
