EXTRUDABLE BLACK BODY DECOY FLARE COMPOSITIONS

An extrudable black body decoy flare composition which, when combusted, provided black body radiation is disclosed. The compositions generally include from about 40% to about 70% metal such as magnesium or aluminum, from about 10% to about 40% polytetrafluoroethylene, and from about 8% to about 30%...

Zusammenfassung:An extrudable black body decoy flare composition which, when combusted, provided black body radiation is disclosed. The compositions generally include from about 40% to about 70% metal such as magnesium or aluminum, from about 10% to about 40% polytetrafluoroethylene, and from about 8% to about 30% binder. Important to the operation of the invention is the production of carbon upon combustion of the composition. Accordingly, polyaromatic thermoplastics, such as polystyrene and dimethyl phthalate, serve as the binder.
