摘要:
The present invention discloses a process for the on-demand production of small quantities of lead azide. First, a metered quantity of sodium azide solution and a metered quantity of a solution of a lead salt sufficient to react with the sodium azide are introduced into a T-mixer or Y-mixer. Then, the sodium azide and lead salt solutions are conveyed into a static mixer and the azide and lead compounds are permitted to react together, forming insoluble crystals of lead azide as a slurry in an aqueous medium. The lead azide crystals are then separated from the aqueous medium. The process is carried out within an explosion-proof chamber.

A lead-free primer energetic composition including Cyanuric Triazide (60%), Tetracene (5%), Barium Nitrate (20%) and Antimony Trisulfide (15%) is produced. The lead-free primer energetic composition is used to construct a primary detonator including a transfer charge of Cyanuric Triazide, which produces a further initiation train that may subsequently detonate a secondary explosive, i.e., HDX, RDX, or a pyrotechnic device.
摘要:
High explosives suitable for filling very small volume loading holes in micro-electric initiators for micro-electro-mechanical mechanisms, used as safe and arm devices, are prepared from slurries of crystalline energetic materials including organic liquid and applied using various methods. These methods include swipe loading, pressure loading and syringe loading. The organic liquid serves as a volatile mobile phase in the slurry so as to partially dissolve the energetic material so that, upon evaporation of the mobile phase, the energetic material precipitates and adheres to the loading hole.

High explosive coatings and inks suitable for use in micro-electronic initiators for micro-electro-mechanical mechanisms used as safe and arm devices, are prepared from coating compositions of crystalline energetic materials and applied using various methods. These methods include wiping and spraying, as well as, pressure applications using a syringe or the like, and application of thick film ink to write specified patterns on a selected surface. A volatile mobile phase may be added to the coating composition to partially dissolve the energetic material so that, upon evaporation of the mobile phase, the energetic material precipitates and adheres to the selected surface.

摘要:
Secondary crystalline high explosives are disclosed which are suitable for filling very small volume loading holes in micro-electric initiators for micro-electro-mechanical mechanisms (MEMS), used as safe and arm (S&A) devices. The explosives are prepared by adding the such a high explosive to an aqueous first volatile mobile phase, adding such a high explosive to a non-aqueous second volatile mobile phase, mixing the first and second volatile mobile phases and then loading the combined phases into the MEMS device and allowing the aqueous and non-aqueous solvents to evaporate depositing the high explosive. Enhanced adhesion between the deposited high explosive and enhanced rheological properties can be obtained by adding a polymeric binder to both mobile phases.
