Primer compositions in the course of time: From black powder and SINOXID to SINTOX compositions and SINCO booster

Starting with methods used to ignite it propelling charge by means, of a piece or glowing charcoal, iron or it burning match in the first firearms of the 14th century, this article contain.,; I detailed description of (lie direction-setting milestone,,, and their effects oil the development of handguns. The decisive turn-around in Ordnance engineering cattle with the discovery of impact-sensitive mixtures and the manufacture or employment or primary explosives, such as mercury fulminate and, in particular, lead trinitroresorcinol and tetrazene, which were used worldwide in the SINOXID primer composition or Dynamit Nobel. With the development or a SINTOX primer composition which;Lt standards by replacing lead, barium and antimony compounds or the SINOXID printer with harmless components, Dynamit Nobel, very early on Look account of the public's increasing environmental awareness and health concerns, The,;nine claim is met by the SINCO booster as an environmentally compatible and stable category of substances, Especially also suitable for gas generation in safety systems of motor vehicles for occupant protection. Over many decs, Dynamit Nobel's special achievements have always been, adc, characterized by new and innovative pioneering products meeting the charging needs of technology and environment.
