Abstract

The reaction thermodynamic parameters of magnesium with oxidizers(NaNO₃, KNO₃, NH₄ClO₄, KClO₄) were calculated. The burning rates were measured. Reactivities of combustion products of the propellants with sea water were studied by a method for collecting gaseous products of H₂. The results showed that the first combustion product of NH₄ClO₄ formulation has got the highest temperature, the lest residual magnesium, and lowest burning rate. The burning rate of NaNO₃ system was highest. The reaction of first combustion product of KClO₄ system with water had the largest amount of total H₂ gas. The first combustion product of NH₄ClO₄ system had the fastest reaction with sea water.
