Facile Preparation of Micrometer KClO₄/Zr Energetic Composite Particles with Enhanced Light Radiation.

ABSTRACT: Developing energetic composite materials consisting of fuel and oxidizer is an effective strategy to enhance the energy release property. However, this strategy has rarely been applied in Potassium Perchlorate (KClO₄)-containing energetic materials, even though KClO₄ is a much stronger oxidizer than most previously reported metal-oxide oxidizer. One of the main obstacles is the lack of simple and in situ ways to introduce KClO₄ into the composite. In present work, micrometer KClO₄/Zirconium (KClO₄/Zr) composite particles were successfully prepared using a facile chemical solution-deposition method. The structure and particle morphologies of as-obtained KClO₄/Zr composite were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electronic microscope (SEM)-EDS (Energy Dispersive Spectromet
