It is shown that at temp{\'e}ratures near 800?K and near 1000?K,and for hydrazine molar fractions of the order of unity, 10-2 the entire kinetics reduces to a single, overall reaction. Characteristic times for the chemical relaxation of ail active, intermediate species produced in the d{\'e}composition, and for the overall reaction, are obtained. Explicit expressions for the overall reaction rate and stoichiometry are given as functions of temp{\'e}rature, total molar concentration (or pressure)and hydrazine molar fraction. Approximate, patched expressions can then be obtained for values of temp{\'e}rature and hydrazine molar fraction between 750 and 1000?K, and 1 and 10-3 respectively.}, url = {https://oa.upm.es/22781/} }
