TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesized composites of leaf-shaped CuO and gCN via a facile sonochemical approach, which reduced the decomposition temperature of ammonium perchlorate (AP) by 59°C and increased the heat release by 1.4 times that of pure AP.

TL;DR: In this article, time-of-flight measurements have been made on the flux of molecules from the surface of ammonium salts vaporizing into vacuum, and the TOF distributions correspond to equimolar fluxes of ammonia and perchloric acid.
Abstract: : Time-of-flight measurements have been made on the flux of molecules from the surface of ammonium salts vaporizing into vacuum. As expected with ammonium halides and ammonium bi-sulfate the TOF distributions correspond to equimolar fluxes of ammonia and the corresponding acid. In the case of ammonium perchlorate the vapor subliming from a single crystal comprised ammonia and perchloric acid. When the source was compressed powder, the vapor was a mixture of lower molecular weight species. This result seems best explained in terms of subsurface decomposition. (Author)

TL;DR: A solid propellant composition comprising: from 60 to 90 weight per cent of an oxidizer component selected from the group of solid inorganic oxidizing salts consisting of ammonium perchlorate, the alkali metal perchlorates, ammonium nitrate, the ammonium metal nitrates, and mixtures thereof, at least a major portion of said oxidizer components being at least one of said per-chlorates as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: 1. A solid propellant composition comprising: from 60 to 90 weight per cent of an oxidizer component selected from the group of solid inorganic oxidizing salts consisting of ammonium perchlorate, the alkali metal perchlorates, ammonium nitrate, the alkali metal nitrates, and mixtures thereof, at least a major portion of said oxidizer component being at least one of said perchlorates; from 10 to 40 weight per cent of a binder component comprised of a rubbery material selected from the group consisting of natural rubber, synthetic rubber polymers, and mixtures thereof; and from 0.1 to 8 weight per cent of a burning rate depressing agent selected from the group consisting of ammonium fluoborate, hydrazine dihydrochloride, barium periodate, and ferric oxalate.
