Title:
LOW HUMIDITY UPTAKE SOLID PYROTECHNIC COMPOSITIONS, AND METHODS FOR MAKING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003022783
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A solid pyrotechnic composition having a flame temperature and exhibiting ballistic performance comparable to that of black powder, but which is preferably formulated to contain neither charcoal nor sulfur, is provided. A solid pyrotechnic composition having a flame temperature and exhibits ballistic performance comparable to that of boron/potassium nitrate, and that is preferably free of boron, is also provided. A process for making the solid pyrotechnic compositions is provided.
