Abstract

Abstract Provided herein is a gas-generating composition which forms combustion residues that can be easily captured. The gas-generating composition is composed of an azide of alkali metal or alkaline earth metal, oxidizer, and 0.1 to 10 wt % of one or two kinds of solder glass represented by BaO. SiO 2 . PbO. Alkali or B 2 O 3 . TiO 2 . SiO 2 . Na 2 O. The incorporation of solder glass reduces the weight of the filter to capture combustion residues by 5 to 30 wt %.
