摘　　要：Highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide has been widely used as a rocket mono-propellant and oxidiser since 1940＇s. Although the relevant specialist literature concerning HTP is relatively extensive, one can still find many myths about highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide, especially concerning safety aspects about its preparation by different techniques, handling or further utilisation. Such ambiguities can result in rather apprehensive approach towards preparing, utilising or even handling of HTP in relevant industry or research fields. The paper contains modern approach to laboratory preparation of highly concentrated solutions of hydrogen peroxide of HTP class （concentration 98%＋） that is intended for propulsive （rocket） applications. Authors, who have gained extensive experience in the field of HTP preparation, handling and utilisation, concisely explain facts and disprove some common myths concerning HTP. Additionally, advantages and possible application of 98%＋ solutions of HTP in various propulsive systems such as small satellites are described. The attention is also paid to the possibility of replacing currently used toxic and corrosive rocket propellants, such as hydrazine and its derivatives, RFNA （red fuming nitric acid）, MON （mixed oxides of nitrogen） or NTO （dinitrogen tetroxide）, by 98%＋ HTP. The potential of the medium as green and easy to handle propellant that can act both, as monopropellant or strong liquid oxidiser with hypergolic capability, is outlined briefly as well.
