Definitions

  • Tracer projectiles provide a reliable means of determining whether projectiles impact on the desired target or whether adjustments in aim are necessary.
  • One problem with the use of conventional tracer projectiles is that they emit visible light, which thereby makes the source of the tracer ammunition discernable to the enemy.
  • the IR trace was found to be visible from the firing position and could not be seen with the naked eye by the observers placed at an angle with respect to the trajectory of the IR tracer projectile.
  • compositions of aspects of the present invention may easily be industrialized.
  • Not all zinc peroxide-containing compositions satisfy the utility requirements as set forth in the above tests.
  • compositions having the ingredients/proportions set forth in the following Tables 2A, 2B and 2C have been found not to be useful

Abstract

L'invention concerne de nouvelles compositions de traceur IR métalliques-sans métaux, non toxiques, contenant un peroxyde de zinc, qui, une fois incorporées dans un projectile à traceur IR de calibre moyen, produisent une trace IR de faible visibilité. De telles compositions de traceur IR comprennent d'environ 26 à environ 30% en poids, ou d'environ 65 à environ 80% en poids, de peroxyde de zinc ; d'environ 40 à environ 47% en poids de nitrate de potassium ; d'environ 10 à environ 25% en poids d'un combustible non métallique consistant en du salicylate de sodium ; d'environ 5 à environ 26% en poids d'un retardateur consistant soit en du carbonate de fer, soit en du carbonate de magnésium, soit en du carbonate de calcium ; et d'environ 5 à environ 10% en poids d'au moins un liant qui est soit du résinate de calcium, soit un liant en résine synthétique consistant en un copolymère d'hexafluoropropylène et de fluorure de vinylidène, ou d'environ 5 à environ 7,5% en poids de butyrate d'acétate de cellulose. Le pourcentage total des ingrédients atteint 100%. L'invention concerne également des projectiles à traceur IR de calibre moyen, c.-à-d., de calibre 0,50, contenant de telles compositions de traceur IR.
