An acid-base precipitation reaction is detailed to synthesize pure crystals of the oxidizer rich compound [Al(H₂O)₆](IO₃)₃(HIO₃)₂ and described here for the first time. The molecule is called aluminum iodate hexahydrate (AIH) and characterized for its energetic potential as an oxidizer in propellant applications. The synthesis method produced bipyramidal hexagonal crystals that are characterized physically and chemically by microscopy, pycnometry, and X-ray crystallography. Further energetic characterization is performed by bomb calorimetry, and impact, friction, and electrostatic discharge ignition sensitivity. This study introduces the potential of AIH as an alternative solid propellant by comparison to the properties of ammonium perchlorate (AP) and ammonium nitrate (AN).
