Abstract

715,828. Gunpowder compositions. BOWDEN, F. P., and BLACKWOOD, J. D. Oct. 1, 1952 [Oct. 2, 1951], No. 22966/51. Class 9(2) A black powder which usually contains charcoal. a nitrate, e.g. potassium nitrate, and sulphur, has a 70 per cent carbon charcoal and a low melting- point mixture, e.g. a eutectic mixture, of alkali metal, nitrates as the nitrate constituent. The mixtures may be 54 per cent potassium nitrate, 30 per cent lithium nitrate and 16 per cent sodium nitrate, or 55 per cent potassium nitrate and 45 per cent sodium nitrate, and are used in black powder consisting of 75 per cent of the mixture of nitrates. 15 per cent alder charcoal (70 per cent carbon) and 10 per cent ground roll sulphur.
