Ammonium perchlorate

Ammonium perchlorate (NH4ClO4) is an inorganic compound that appears as a white crystalline powder and is hygroscopic. It is a strong oxidizer and can explode when mixed with reducing agents, organic materials, and flammable substances such as sulfur, phosphorus, or metal powders. There is a risk of combustion and explosion when in contact with strong acids. It is used in the manufacture of explosives, fireworks, and as an analytical reagent. Ammonium perchlorate is used in cold light fireworks and special effects in aerial shells.

FAQ


Oxidant stability and safety issues

Easy to decompose: Many oxidants are easy to decompose when heated, damp, exposed to light or in contact with other substances, generating heat, gas and even causing an explosion. For example, hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorous acid, etc. will spontaneously decompose under certain conditions, release oxygen, and increase the risk of explosion.
Explosive: some oxidants such as chlorates, nitrates and organic peroxides, etc., after friction, impact, vibration, etc., can easily cause explosion. Therefore, special care is required during storage, transportation and use.
Toxicity and corrosiveness: Some oxidants such as bromine pentafluoride are toxic and pose a threat to human health. At the same time, they may also be corrosive to materials such as metals and damage equipment or containers.

Oxidant reactivity issues

Strong oxidation: oxidant has strong oxidation, can react violently with a variety of substances, and even cause combustion or explosion. For example, they can react violently with inflammables, organics, reducing agents, etc., generating large amounts of heat and gas.
Violent reaction with acid: most oxidants will react violently with acid and even explode. Such as potassium chlorate, benzoyl peroxide, etc. in case of sulfuric acid that explosion. Therefore, these oxidizing agents must avoid contact with acids or alkalis during storage and use.
metathesis reaction: a metathesis reaction may occur between oxidants, resulting in high temperature, combustion and even explosion. For example, nitrite reacts violently when it encounters a stronger oxidant than it.

Oxidant storage and transportation issues

Strict storage requirements: The oxidant needs to be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, avoiding direct sunlight and high temperature environment. At the same time, different varieties of oxidants should be stored in stacks, and it is strictly prohibited to mix organic combustibles.
High transportation risk: During transportation, the oxidant needs to be especially careful to avoid vibration, friction and impact. At the same time, it is necessary to select appropriate packaging materials and transportation methods to ensure safe transportation.
