초록
ZPP(Zirconium Potassium Perchlorate)는 산화제 potassium perchlorate, 금속원료 zirconium, 결합제 Viton 조성의 점화제이다. ZPP는 항공우주산업, 추진제 점화원, 자동화 산업에 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 PMD(Pyrotechnic Mechanical Device)에 사용되는 ZPP의 제조공정 및 형상/열량/압력값과 같은 특성을 연구하였다. ZPP 제작 시, 원료들을 고속으로 교반하여 ZPP가 균일한 입자크기 및 형상으로 제작될 수 있도록 혼화공정을 설계하였다.
Zirconium potassium perchlorate(ZPP) is an igniter composed of potassium perchlorate as an oxidizing agent and zirconium as a fuel with a Viton binder. ZPP has been used to provide an ignition source in the aerospace, propulsion, and automotive industries. This study investigates the manufacturing process and characteristics of ZPP, such performance and shape/calorimetry/pressure characteristics with respect to pyrotechnic mechanical device(PMD). During the production of ZPP, the mixing process was designed to produce uniform particle size and shape by mixing the raw materials at high speed.
