Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The mixture of ammonium Perchlorate and magnesium chloride was investigated to analyse degradation behaviour and physical change of firework compositions. For the investigation, a humidity controlled environment chamber was prepared and the measurement protocol was established. The measurement clarified the occurrence of a reversible process of water absorption and an irreversible process of chemical reactions. The results implied the generation of sodium hydroxide and the reduction process of perchlorate. Cracks due to volume change was observed as well as density change. The weight change had a greater rate than volume change. Changes were also found between before and after the degradation in combustion test.
