Sodium perchlorate, as a strong oxidizing chemical raw material, presents safety and environmental concerns throughout its production, storage, and transportation chain. Upgrading to green production technologies and implementing strict safety controls are crucial for the industry's development. This places extremely high demands on operations at each stage, driving technological innovation and management optimization.

 

One major advantage of sodium perchlorate is its high oxygen content, higher than that of commonly used combustion improves, allowing for more complete fuel combustion. Furthermore, it is very stable at room temperature, does not easily deteriorate, and is convenient to store and transport, making it suitable for use in complex environments or aerospace launch scenarios. In solid propellant formulations, when mixed with aluminum powder and adhesives, it releases a large amount of heat and gas during combustion, thus generating sustained thrust.

 

Sodium perchlorate has a wide range of uses. It allows propellants to be made smaller yet more powerful, enabling equipment to fly farther and more nimbly.
