US Classification:

149 198, 149 2, 149 96, 149100, 1491094, 1491096

Abstract:

An economical, low residue, mortar increment propellant container manufactured of foamed celluloid, which is composed of 50 to 84% nitrocellulose, having a nitrogen content of from about 10. 5 to about 13. 5%, and about 15 to about 50% camphor. The burn rate of the foamed celluloid can be enhanced by the addition of energetic additives, such as energetic plasticizers.

International Classification:

B05C005/00

US Classification:

118313000

Abstract:

Particle coating processes and systems employ UV curable materials to form tack-free surfaces rapidly. By applying UV curable compositions on well suspended particles a UV particle coating technology enables a scalable process of coating fine particles at desirable coating thicknesses with a wide spectrum of obtainable properties. Processes in accordance with the present invention decouple the particle suspension and film formation steps, enabling ample time to first deliver evenly the coating materials to the particle surfaces, followed by rapid polymerization/curing reaction induced by the UV light to rapidly create tack-free surfaces, thus preventing particles agglomeration while achieving uniform and thin-layer coating.

US Classification:

149 198, 149 88, 149 96, 1491084, 1491094

Abstract:

By using generally known chemically, physically, or a combination thereof, means to foam celluloid, a foamed celluloid material is invented with a density of less than about 1. 25 gm/cm, which material is relatively low cost, very fast burning, very low residue, easily moldable, and which material exhibits good mechanical strength, and provides a good water barrier. These characteristics make this foamed celluloid a preferred choice for military artillery propellant charge bags, military mortar and civilian fireworks increment charges, combustible cartridges, flare housings, igniter tubes, as well as, closure disks, combustible enclosures and components thereof, among other applications.
