In this paper, we investigated the potential use of a new organic-inorganic hybrid crystal structure based on KNO3 in ignition compositions. H2dabco[K(NO3)3] (DAN-2) with organic-inorganic hybrid crystal structure is synthesized through intermolecular assembly technology. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) were used to detect the crystal morphology, structure and molecular structure of DAN-2, which has a regular cubic structure. Experimental data were obtained using thermogravimetric/differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC), closed bomb test and high-speed photography, which were then used to study and analyze the thermal decomposition properties and combustion properties of DAN-2. The initial thermal decomposition temperature of DAN-2 was low (194 °C) and the activation energy of the thermal decomposition was 154 kJ/mol. Possible thermal decomposition mechanisms are further discussed and proposed. This research pushed forward the application of organic-inorganic hybrid crystal structure oxidant DAN-2 in ignition system.
