Claim 1
Independent Claim
72 words
A PROCESS FOR PREPARING A PYROTECHNIC COMPOSITION COMPRISING, GRINDING SEPARATELY TO A POWDER 40-90% OF METAL CALCIUM AND 60-10% OF POTASSIUM PERCHLORATE, BLENDING TOGETHER THE POWDERED CONSTITUENTS IN A SEALED CONTAINER FOR A UNIFORM MIXTURE AND PACKAGING THE POWDERED MIXTURE INTO A VEHICLE WHICH ON COMBUSTION OF THE COMPOSITION AT AN ALTITUDE ABOVE 100,000 FEED WILL YIELD A LIGHT OUTPUT MORE THAN DOUBLE THAT EMITTED BY COMBUSTION OF COMPOSITION AT SEA LEVEL.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
62 words
A PYROTECHNIC COMPOSITION YIELDING A HIGHER LIGHT OUTPUT ON IGNITION AT AN ALTITUDE OVER 100,000 FEED THAN ON IGNITION AT SEA LEVEL IN WHICH THE COMPOSITION CONSISTS OF A FINELY DIVIDED MIXTURE OF A POWDERED CONSTITUENT CONTAINING CALCIUM, A POWDERED OXIDIZING AGENT AND A POWDERED BINDER SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF NITROCELLULOSE LACQUER, VINYL ACETATE ALCOHOL RESIN, LAMINAC AND EPOXY RESION.
