The FT said the Iranian-flagged ships, the Golbon and the Jairan, are expected to carry more than 1,000 tonnes of sodium perchlorate, which is used to make ammonium perchlorate, the main ingredient for solid propellant for missiles.
Ammonium perchlorate is among chemicals controlled by the Missile Technology Export Control Regime, a voluntary international anti-proliferation body, the FT said.
It reported two officials said the sodium perchlorate could produce 960 tonnes of ammonium perchlorate, enough to make 1,300 tonnes of propellant, which could fuel 260 mid-range Iranian missiles.
The FT cited the officials as saying the sodium perchlorate was being shipped to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and that 34 20-foot (six-metre) containers containing the chemical had been loaded onto the Golbon, which departed the Chinese island of Daishan on Tuesday.
