Abstract
The co-precipitation method was used to synthesize nanosize copper ferrite (CuF) and cobalt-copper-nickel ferrite (CoCuNiF). Physico-chemical characterization of material was done using powder X-ray diffraction, Raman, UV–Vis, and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The effect of 1 % by mass additives on the thermal decomposition and kinetics parameters of ammonium perchlorate (AP) was investigated using non-isothermal isoconversional methods such as Flynn wall Ozawa (FWO), Kissinger Akahira Sunose (KAS), and Starink. The burning rate enhancement and ignition delay study were also investigated. The catalysts can decrease the activation energy of AP by 48 % along with increasing the burning rate of the corresponding composite materials. Both the catalysts can be successfully used for enhancing the burning performance of propellants and hence can be used for rocket and missile propulsions.
