  • Primer composition
    Patent number: 4608102
    Abstract: A primer composition using manganese dioxide as the predominant oxidizer is disclosed.

Various diazo, triazole, or tetrazole compounds may be used as non-metallic initiating explosives, although diazodinitrophenol is preferred. The combustion by-products of the invention do not include toxic oxides of lead, barium, or mercury. The invention therefore provides distinct safety and environmental advantages.
