Abstract

The precipitation of ultra fine ammonium perchlorate(UFAP) crystals from the N-methyl pyrrolidone(NMP) solutions of ammonium perchlorate(AP) was studied. The characteristics of the precipitated crystals were investigated by means of scanning electron micrograph(SEM), X-ray diffraction(XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis(TGA). When chloroform, methylene chloride and toluene were the precipitants, the product crystals had a mean particle size less than 2$\mu\textrm{m}$. The crystallographical property and thermal decomposition behavior of the prepared UFAP were almost the same as those of the commercial AP.

과염소산암모늄(AP)의 N-메틸피롤리돈(NMP) 용액으로부터 초미세 크기를 갖는 과염소산암모늄(UFAP) 결정의 결정화 연구를 수행하였고, 침전된 결정들의 특성들을 scanning electron micrograph(SEM)와 X-ray diffraction(XRD) 그리고 thermogravimetric analysis(TGA)를 사용하여 분석하였다. 침전용매로 클로로포름, 염화메틸렌 그리고 톨루엔이 사용되었을 경우, 2$\mu\textrm{m}$ 이하의 크기를 갖는 결정들이 제조되었다. 제조된 UFAP의 결정학적 특성과 열분해 거동은 상용으로 사용되는 AP와 거의 유사하였다.
