Abstract: The invention relates to a pyrotechnic agent containing at least one azotetrazolate as a component thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to ignition sets comprising initial explosive substances selected from the group consisting of compounds, in particular compounds of lead, which are derived from trinitropolyphenols, such as trinitrophenol, trinitroresorcinol or hydrazoic acid, for example, in mixture with oxygen-generating substances, wherein further included are initial explosive substances made of alkali metal and/or alkaline-earth metal salts of dinitrobenzofuroxanes and oxygen-generating substances made from nitrates of ammonium, guanidine, aminoguanidine, triaminoguanidine, dicyanodiamidine and from the elements of sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, cerium and/or from multivalent metal oxides.

Abstract: The invention relates to a thermal pre-ignition agent which contains as components 20 to 50 wt. % of dinitrobenzofuroxane and 50 to 80 wt. % of an oxidizing agent and a nitrogen-containing compound.

Abstract: The invention relates to a primer composition, to a method for producing the same and to the use of said primer composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pyrotechnic igniting agent which contains basic salts of 5,5?-azotetrazole having the general empirical formula: Mm+n(C2N102?)p(CO32?)q(OH?)r, wherein: M is an element of the 3rd to 12th group of the periodic table having an atomic number in the range from 21 to 80, (C2N102?) is azotetrazolate dianion having the structure (AA), m is the valence of the cation, n is an integer from 1 to 6, p is an integer from 1 to 4, q is an integer from 0 to 8, r is an integer from 0 to 4 and q+r?0, wherein the proportion of the basic azotetrazolate component is 30 to 100 wt %, and 0 to 70 wt % of an additive or mixtures of a plurality of additives is contained.

Abstract: A propellant charge, a priming cap including the propellant charge and a weapons training system including the priming cap are characterized in that the propellant charge contains a soft friction agent. The propellant charge can contain at least one impact-sensitive explosive substance as a heavy-metal-free priming compound, and the soft friction agent can be marble, calcite, dolomite, soft carbonates and/or mixtures thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to a lead- and barium-free ignition charge which does not contain any oxidant, and its use.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat-generating mixture, to a method and a device for generating heat, especially for heating food such as water, coffee, etc.

Abstract: A heat-generating mixture includes 40 to 55 wt % of metal silicide, 40 to 60 wt. % of iron (III) oxide, and 0 to 10 wt. % of silicon. On burning, the heat-generating mixture forms a non-melting, porous slag. In a method of heat generation, to generate heat, an igniter capable of being actuated mechanically or electrically, ignites a booster charge, which in turn ignites the heat-generating mixture. A device for heat generation incudes an igniter capable of being actuated mechanically or electrically, a booster charge and the heat-generating mixture fixed and/or contained in and/or on a casing.

Abstract: The invention relates to the salts of styphnic acid, to methods for producing the same and to their use.
