ABSTRACT:
Methyltricarboranylmethyl perchlorate is disclosed along with its synthesis nd its use in a solid composite propellant. Three carboranyl groups and a perchlorate group are contained in the intramolecular perchlorate salt, methyltricarboranylmethyl perchlorate, which is used as a partial replacement for ammonium perchlorate and as a replacement for liquid carborane catalyst-plasticizer compounds to achieve ultrahigh burning rates for propellants. The perchlorate salt when incorporated into a propellant composition contributes to the oxidizer function, and in addition, since three carboranyl groups are present in each molecule of the salt, the burning rate catalysis function is accomplished without having to incorporate separate burning rate catalysts.
