Conclusions
-
1.
In its initial stages, the decomposition of hydroxylammonium perchlorate involves dissociation of the salt followed by decomposition of a complex of hydroxylamine with hydroxylammonium perchlorate. At elevated temperatures the reaction involving hydroxylamine molecules not bound into complexes plays an increasing part.
-
2.
As hydroxylammonium perchlorate decomposes, the leading stage changes. The crucial reaction becomes oxidation of NH3OH+ by perchloric acid, leading to autocatalysis of the process.
