New Pyrotechnic Binders, Phase 3
Abstract
Larger than laboratory-size batches of liquid high-oxygen-content polycarbonates and polyesters were prepared. Four different flare formulations were prepared from each of the polymers. Curing behavior, as well as the mechanical and burning behavior of the pyrotechnics after exposure to different environments, was evaluated. All four of the pyrotechnics containing polycarbonate performed in an outstanding manner, while only one of four formulations containing polyester performed satisfactorily.
