The solid gas generating composition produces a low concentration of particulate matter (eg concentrated ash) upon ignition. The solid gas generating composition most preferably comprises at least one oxidant selected from nitramine, strontium mixed with or without potassium perchlorate, nitrate of cerium, and a binder. You can also use graphite if you need to. Gas generating compositions are commonly used in inflatable passenger automatic protection systems (e.g., airbag systems) for automobiles. |
