Abstract: We continue the study begun in [1, 2] of chemical processes in perchloric acid—ammonia flames. We propose new channels for the reaction. Based on experimental data on the chemical structure of an ammonium perchlorate flame and flames in О$_2$/NH$_3$/Ar, NH$_3$/HClO$_4$/H$_2$/Ar mixtures, we estimate the rate constants for steps that have not been well studied and refine the kinetic mechanism of [1, 2]. We discuss calculation results for the chemical structure of a flame in an NH$_3$/HClO$_4$/H$_2$O/Ar mixture and an ammonium perchlorate flame. We simplify the kinetic mechanism.
