Definitions

  • this effect can be achieved by the application of the deflagration material over a small portion of the pyrotechnic sheet material adjacent to an ignition point and the amount of deflagrating material need not be sufficient to produce a significant amount of gaseous products on combustion.
  • the preferred oxidizing substrate comprises polymeric film preferably containing atoms chemically bound therein selected from the group consisting of halogens (especially fluorine), oxygen, sulphur, nitrogen and phosphorous.
  • One preferred film substrate comprises fluoropolymer such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) which produces a high energy pyrotechnic sheet, but other suitable polymeric films include those comprising polychlorotrifluoroethylene, polyhexafluoropropylene, copolymers of trifluoroethylene and hexafluoropropylene, copolymers of trifluoroethylene and tetrafluoroethylene, copolymers of hexafluoropropylene and tetrafluoroethylene, copolymers of hexafluoropropylene and vinylidene fluoride, copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene and partially fluorinated propylene, copolymers of chlorotrifluoroethylene and vinylidene
  • a preferred pyrotechnic sheet of the invention has discontinuous portions in the oxidizing substrate and/or the layer of oxidizable material, preferably in the oxidizable material, these portions having flame-permeable apertures through which the interface between the oxidising substrate and the oxidizable material is exposed as described in United Kingdom patent specification no.GB 2,282,136A which is incorporated herein by reference. Such exposure of portions of the interface enhances the ease of ignition and rate of combustion of the pyrotechnic sheet.
  • the substrate and the oxidizable material are permanently deformable and have different strains for rupture value thereby enabling one of the materials to be ruptured by stretching to expose flame-permeable apertures at the interface.
  • the oxidizable material may advantageously comprise metal selected from the group consisting of lithium, sodium, magnesium, beryllium, calcium, strontium, barium, aluminium, titanium, zirconium and alloys thereof, which metal may be advantageously be vapour-deposited on the substrate.
  • a metal layer is especially advantageous as it significantly enhances the dimensional stability of the pyrotechnic sheet and is easily ruptured.
  • a most preferred metal for high heat generation is magnesium or an alloy thereof preferably coated on to a substrate film comprising fluoropolymer.
  • the ratio of metal to the substrate of oxidizing polymeric film is substantially stoichiometric or there is a small excess of metal at the location of the film underlying the metal.
  • the reaction between PTFE and magnesium can be represented empirically as (C2F4)n - 2nMg --> 2nMgF2 + 2nC This reaction releases 5.98 megajoules/kilogram of reactant pyrotechnic material.
