Abstract

Abstract 1. A gas generator composition consisting essentially of a fuel selected from CELLULOSE ACETATE, NITROCELLULOSE AND MIXTURES THEREOF; AN ENERGETIC PLASTICIZER SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF TRIMETHYLOLETHANE TRINITRATE, PENTAERYTHRITOL TRINITRATE, DIETHYLENE GLYCOL DINITRATE AND MIXTURES THEREOF; A NONENERGETIC PLASTICIZER SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF HYDROXYPROPYLGLYCEROL, DIETHYL PHTHALATE AND DIBUTYL PHTHALATE; A STABILIZER SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF N-methyl-pnitroaniline, ethyl centralite and resorcinol; and A BALLISTIC MODIFIER SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF DIBUTYL TIN MALEATE, LEAD SALICYLATE, MANGANESE DIOXIDE, STANNIC OXIDE, ZINC CARBONATE, MONOBASIC CUPRIC SALICYLATE, MONOBASIC LEAD BETA RESORCYLATE, MONOBASIC LEAD SALICYLATE AND MIXTURES THEREOF.
