Abstract: A method for removing a gas from a propellant composition includes providing an uncured propellant composition comprising a bonding agent, energetic particles, and a polymeric binder, and flowing an inert gas through the uncured propellant composition to remove an evolved gas from the uncured propellant composition.

Abstract: A multicolor strobing pyrotechnic flare including a plurality of alternating pyrotechnic layers. The plurality of alternating pyrotechnic layers includes n pyrotechnic layers and the n pyrotechnic layers include m different pyrotechnic layer types, n is 2 to 2,000 and m is 2 to 2,000. The n pyrotechnic layers include a first pyrotechnic layer and a second pyrotechnic layer and the first pyrotechnic layer includes a first pyrotechnic compound and the second pyrotechnic layer includes a second pyrotechnic compound. Burning of the first pyrotechnic compound emits a first color and burning of the second pyrotechnic compound emits a second color and the first color and the second color are different.

Abstract: A multistage aspirator for an inflatable assembly may comprise a first end defining a primary gas inlet and a second end defining a gas outlet. An internal surface of the multistage aspirator may define a flow path extending from the primary gas inlet to the gas outlet. A first stage of the multistage aspirator may include a first stage orifice extending from the internal surface to an external surface of the multistage aspirator. A second stage of the multistage aspirator may include a second stage orifice located downstream of the first stage orifice and extending from the external surface to the internal surface.

Abstract: An energy conversion system may comprise a substrate including a first conductive trace and a second conductive trace electrically isolated from the first conductive trace. A housing may be coupled to the substrate. An ignition compound may be located in the housing. A solder may be thermally coupled to the ignition compound such that ignition of the ignition compound melts the solder. The housing may be configured to output the solder onto the first conductive trace and the second conductive trace.

Abstract: Methods and systems for an explosive cord are disclosed. An explosive cord may comprise a tubing comprising an inner surface and an outer surface, a reactive material comprising hexanitrostilbene and/or boron potassium nitrate coupled to the inner surface of the tubing, and a hollow or solid core through the center of the explosive cord.

Abstract: A pyrotechnic egress system may comprise a case defining an opening, a gas generator disposed within the case, the gas generator configured to generate a gas flame in response to being ignited, and an ignition line disposed at the opening and configured to ignite the gas generator, wherein the case directs the gas flame through the opening for deflagrating a window.
