  • Lead-Free nanoscale Metal/Oxidizer Composit for Percussion Primers
    Publication number: 20110240184
    Abstract: A lead-free percussion primer compositions include a mixture of at least one metal having nanometer-sized particles with at least one oxidizer having nanometer-sized particles producing a metal(s)-oxidizer(s) nanocomposite, wherein the oxidizer(s) is present in an effective amount to substantially oxidize the metal(s), at least one gas generating material mixed with the metal(s)-oxidizer(s) nanocomposite producing a metal(s)-oxidizer(s)-gas generator(s) composition, and at least one binder, the metal(s)-oxidizer(s)-gas generating composition is coated with the binder.
    Type: Application
