X-ray diffraction, inductively coupled plasma analysis, and transmission electron microscopy were used to characterize the structure, composition, and mor- phology of Cu/Co/Cr nanocomposites. The results show that Cu/Co/Cr nanocomposites have both CuCr204 and CoCr204 spinel phase. The particle size of Cu/Co/Cr nanocomposites is 15-20 nm and the specific surface area is 95-115 m2/g. Cu/ Co/Cr nanocomposites were used as new catalysts for improving thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate （AP）. Their catalytic activities were investigated using differential thermal analysis and thermal gravimetric analyzer coupled with an online mass spectrometer. The results show that the decomposition temperature of AP lowered 132-146℃ by adding 4 wt% Cu/Co/Cr nanocomposites. Catalytic activities of the prepared nanocomposites depend on the calcinations temperature and addition amount of corresponding nanocomposites.
