On avait très anciennement remarqué qu'en mêlant ensemble de l'acide muriatique et de l'acide nitrique il en résultait un acide mixte, qui avait des propriétés fort différentes de celles des deux acides dont il était composé. Cet acide a été célèbre par la propriété qu'il a de dissoudre l'or, le «roi des métaux» dans le langage alchimique, et c'est de là que lui a été donnée la qualification brillante d'eau régale. Cet acide mixte [...] a des propriétés particulières dépendantes de l'action combinée de ses deux bases acidifiables, et nous avons cru, par cette raison, devoir lui conserver un nom particulier. Celui d'acide nitro-muriatique nous a paru le plus convenable.

As a result of the larger diameter Vanguard satellite design, the original Aerobee was now too skinny for use as a second stage. A new larger-diameter stage designed by Aerojet-General would have to be used instead. It incorporated an AJ-10 rocket engine that developed 33 kilonewtons(7, 500 pounds) of thrust using the storable propellants inhibited white fuming nitric acid and symmetrical dimethyl hydrazine.

CONT

I have developed several liquid rocket engines using both cryogenic and storable propellants. We have never had a problem with cryogenic propellants(and yes we have never had a LOX valve freeze--you have to use the proper valve). We have shifted over to storable propellants(Inhibited White Fuming Nitric Acid and furfuryl alcohol) because of their high density, hypergolicity, and long term storage capability.
