Has anyone tested 5-ATZClO4 to see if the perchlorate salt is not hygroscopic
and to see if it is more easily initiated than the nitrate salt 5-ATZNO3 ?
The perchlorate may also be more powerful than the nitrate.
US3663553 Di-Silver Aminotetrazole Perchlorate would be a possible initiator for 5-ATZClO4 which would have perfect chemical compatibility.
Of course more mundane guanidine perchlorate or methylamine perchlorate, would be better economy for use as a secondary explosive or base charge while
the 5-ATZ
would be better economy being utilized to make an initiator.
