This stuff is about as stable as the compound made from acetone and hydrogen peroxide by the jihadi bombmakers who lose their hands in the process. It's more like fulminate of mercury used in primers for small arm cartridges. Using it as the main charge isn't too smart. Since chemistry was my major in college, I wanted to see nickel hydrazine perchlorate's formula and structure, but I had no luck, even at ChemSpider.
While scanning those Yahoo links, I found that Hope-Weeks's lab was working under a Dept. of Homeland Security contract, IIRC. Hope-Weeks gave instructions to her grad students not to make more than 100 milligrams of it at a time. That's one tenth of a gram. One idiot decided to make 10 grams of it, IIRC. He was left handed, and lost three fingers from his left hand after he started using a mortar and pestle on it!
If was easy ......:o)
Thanks. There’s a lot of intillectual horsepower here.
