Abstract: The present invention is directed to a novel, low-toxicity red smoke generating composition and a method of making the same, comprising at least one red dye, a coolant, an oxidizer, a non-sugar binder, and a non-sulfur particulate fuel that is also a burn-control agent having at least one particle size distribution. Preferably, the red dye comprises an anthracene or anthraquinone-based dye and the fuel comprises a sugar or mixture of sugars.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a novel, low-toxicity and environmentally-friendly violet smoke generating composition. The composition comprises a mixture of at least one red dye and at least one blue dye, a coolant, an oxidizer, a binder, and a non-sulfur particulate fuel that is also a burn-control agent having two different particle size distributions. Preferably the fuel comprises a mixture of granulated sucrose and sucrose 10×.

Abstract: A flameless smoke pot and a method of generating smoke using the smoke pot. The smoke pot includes a casing having a side wall with an inlet openings and containing a plurality of perforated tubes containing red phosphorous pellets. A heat generating pyrotechnic composition is disposed at a first end of the casing to generate heat which flows through the perforated tubes containing red phosphorous pellets to produce white phosphoric acid clouds of smoke. The white phosphoric acid clouds of smoke are combined with atmospheric an containing water to generate the white phosphoric acid clouds of aerosol smoke. The white phosphoric acid clouds of aerosol smoke are directed through a perforated flame arrester whereby visible flame is prevented from being created.
