Preparation of Nano-MnFe2O4 and Its Catalytic Performance of Thermal Decomposition of Ammonium Perchlorate

Abstract

Abstract: Nano-MnFe₂O₄ particles were synthesized by co-precipitation phase inversion method and low-temperature combustion method respectively, using MnCl₂, FeCl₃, Mn(NO₃)₂, Fe(NO₃)₃, NaOH and C₆H₈O₇. X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetry-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to characterize the structure, morphology, thermal stability of MnFe₂O₄ and its catalytic performance to ammonium perchlorate. Results showed that single-phased and uniform spinel MnFe₂O₄ was obtained. The average particle size was about 30 and 20 nm. The infrared absorption peaks appeared at about 420 and 574 cm^-1, and the particles were stable below 524℃. Using the two prepared catalysts, the higher thermal decomposition temperature of ammonium perchlorate was decreased by 77.3 and 84.9℃ respectively, while the apparent decomposition heat was increased by 482.5 and 574.3 J·g^-1. The catalytic mechanism could be explained by the favorable electron transfer space provided by outer d orbit of transition metal ions and the high specific surface absorption effect of MnFe₂O₄ particles.
