Abstract

Graphene-based carbohydrazide coordination polymers are beneficial for improving solid propellants’ energy level and safety, so the study of their thermal decomposition mechanism is promoted for their wide application. In this paper, graphene oxide (GO) intercalated transition metal (Cu2+, Co2+, and Ni2+) complexes of carbohydrazide (CHZ) have been evaluated by using DSC/TGA apparatus and the TG-FTIR technique. Both isoconversional and combined kinetic methods were employed to calculate the kinetic parameters. The components inside GOCHZ-M would react with each other to cause a large mass loss rate and lead to a larger heat-releasing value than pure GO. The types of metal ions could affect their reaction model. Compared with GO, G-CHZ-Co shows a two-sided effect (stabilization and catalytic) on its decomposition. For G-CHZ-Co, the reaction model of each peak is close to the random 2d nucleation and nucleus growth model.
