Abstract
A method for making a pyrotechnic composition in accordance with an embodiment of the present technology includes flowing metal powder, polytetrafluoroethylene powder, and binder powder in separate respective feed streams toward an extruder. The binder powder includes adhesive material and polytetrafluoroethylene anticaking material coating the adhesive material. The method further includes interspersing the metal powder, the binder powder, and the fluoropolymer powder to form a mixture. This mixture is then subjected to an extrusion process during which the anticaking material coating the adhesive material is disrupted. This releases the adhesive material to bind together the metal powder and the polytetrafluoroethylene powder in the extrudate. The powder mixture includes no solvent at any time between being formed and being extruded, yet the extrudate is well-mixed and cohesive.
Claims (41)
1 . An extruded pyrotechnic composition, comprising:
ignitable metal particles provided from metal powder, wherein the metal particles are homogenous and in a first intact state;
fluoropolymer particles provided from fluoropolymer powder, wherein the fluoropolymer particles are homogenous and in a second intact state; and
a heterogenous binder powder comprising a mixture of adhesive material and anticaking material, wherein at least a portion of the binder mixture is formed by:
disrupted particles that include a first portion of the adhesive material being coated by the anticaking material in a sheared state; and
a second portion of the adhesive material liberated from the disrupted particles during extrusion;
wherein the liberated adhesive material forms a matrix containing:
the metal particles in the first intact state;
the fluoropolymer particles in the second intact state; and
the disrupted particles that include the first portion of the adhesive material coated by the anticaking material.
2 . The composition of claim 1 wherein:
the metal powder is magnesium powder; and
the fluoropolymer powder is polytetrafluoroethylene powder.
3 . The composition of claim 1 wherein the anticaking material comprises a fluoropolymer material coating the second portion of the adhesive material.
4 . The composition of claim 1 wherein:
the fluoropolymer powder is polytetrafluoroethylene powder; and
the anticaking material is polytetrafluoroethylene.
5 . The composition of claim 1 wherein the adhesive material is a copolymer including vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene monomers.
6 . The composition of claim 1 including no solvent.
7 . The composition of claim 1 wherein the ignitable metal particles are configured to exothermically react with the fluoropolymer particles upon ignition to generate a brief burst of high-intensity heat.
8 . A method for using an extruded pyrotechnic composition, comprising:
providing an extruded pyrotechnic composition that comprises:
ignitable metal particles provided from metal powder, wherein the metal particles are homogenous and in a first intact state;
fluoropolymer particles provided from fluoropolymer powder, wherein the fluoropolymer particles are homogenous and in a second intact state; and
a heterogenous binder powder comprising a mixture of adhesive material and anticaking material, wherein at least a portion of the binder mixture is formed by:
disrupted particles that include a first portion of the adhesive material coated by the anticaking material in a sheared state; and
a second portion of the adhesive material liberated from the disrupted particles during extrusion;
wherein the liberated adhesive material forms a matrix containing:
the metal particles in the first intact state;
the fluoropolymer particles in the second intact state; and
the disrupted particles that include the first portion of the adhesive material coated by the anticaking material; and
igniting the extruded pyrotechnic composition.
9 . The method of claim 8 wherein providing the extruded pyrotechnic composition comprises providing the extruded pyrotechnic composition wherein:
the metal powder is magnesium powder; and
the fluoropolymer powder is polytetrafluoroethylene powder.
10 . The method of claim 8 wherein providing the extruded pyrotechnic composition comprises providing the extruded pyrotechnic composition wherein the anticaking material comprises a fluoropolymer material coating the second portion of the adhesive material.
11 . The method of claim 8 wherein providing the extruded pyrotechnic composition comprises providing the extruded pyrotechnic composition wherein:
the fluoropolymer powder is polytetrafluoroethylene powder; and
the anticaking material is polytetrafluoroethylene.
12 . The method of claim 8 wherein providing the extruded pyrotechnic composition comprises providing the extruded pyrotechnic composition wherein the adhesive material is a copolymer including vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene monomers.
13 . The method of claim 8 wherein igniting the extruded pyrotechnic composition causes the ignitable metal particles to exothermically react with the fluoropolymer particles upon ignition to generate a brief burst of high-intensity heat.
