Composition useful in gas generator devices for automotive restraint systems comprises DL-tartaric acid as a first fuel, second fuel e.g. triazoles, and potassium chlorate as a first oxidizer

摘要

A composition (C1) comprises DL-tartaric acid as a first fuel (5-40%); a second fuel (0.1-30%) selected from carboxylic acids, amino acids, tetrazoles, triazoles, guanidines, metal and nonmetal salts; and potassium chlorate (5-70%) as a first oxidizer. An independent claim is included for a gas generating system and vehicle occupant protection system containing (C1).
