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

Abstract: Ignition means for propellant powders include at least one oxidation means, at least one reduction means and at least one binder, and are free from primary explosives.

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

Abstract: The invention relates to thermal pre-ignition agents and to their use as thermal fuses, in particular for use in gas generators of motor-vehicle safety systems.

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.

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 pyrotechnic agent containing at least one azotetrazolate as a component thereof.

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

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 invention relates to thermal pre-ignition agents and to their use as thermal fuses, in particular for use in gas generators of motor-vehicle safety systems.

Abstract: Ignition means for propellant powders include at least one oxidation means, at reduction means and at least one binder, and are free from primary explosives.

Abstract: The subject of the present invention is gas-producing agents for gas generators which contain, as nitrogen-containing compound (fuel), a compound from the group tetrazole, triazole, triazine, cyanic acid, urea, their derivatives or salts thereof, as oxidants, compounds from the group of the peroxides, nitrates, chlorates or perchlorates, and also combustion moderators which are capable of influencing, by heterogeneous or homogeneous catalysis, the combustion and its rate, as well as, optionally, additions capable of affecting the proportion of the toxic gases.

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: The invention relates to granulated gas charges and their use. Said granulated gas charges, whose combustion fumes are nitrogen-free and low in carbon monoxide, contain a) between 5 and 50% by weight binders; b) between 0 and 90% by weight oxidizing agents; and/or c) between 0 and 75% of an organic, notably nitrogen-free, fuel.

Abstract: What is described is the use of a microjet reactor for the production of initiating explosive, each of the starting solutions for explosive production in the microjet reactor being injected through a nozzle onto a common collision point into a reactor space enclosed by a reactor housing, a gas being admitted into the reactor space via an opening, and the resulting initiating explosive crystals being removed from the reactor housing together with the liquid and excess gas through a further opening.

Abstract: The invention relates to a gas-generating substance which consists of nitrous oxide and/or nitrogen monoxide and one or more combustibles which are solid at room temperature and normal pressure.

Abstract: Producing gas-generating mixtures and gas-generating mixtures produced thereby.

Abstract: The invention relates to igniting agents, which contain soluble, preferably water-soluble igniting substances.
