Claims
- 1. A smoke or fog generating composition consisting essentially of
- 29-33% wt. zinc oxide;
- 31.3-40.4% wt. ammoniumperchlorate
- 10-17% wt. polychloroisoprene;
- 3.8-14.3% wt. a buffering agent; and
- 6-12% wt. of a plasticizer
- all of the components being mixed in such proportion to one another that a neutral smoke or fog is formed by said composition upon its ignition within the range of pH 5-7.
- 2. The smoke or fog generating composition as set forth in claim 1, wherein said plasticizer is selected from the group of plasticizers consisting of dioctyl phthalate (DOP) or dioctyl sebacate (DOS) or dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP).
- 3. The smoke or fog generating composition as set forth in claim 1, wherein ammoniumchloride is said buffering agent for buffering the produced smoke or fog and for moderating the combustion of the smoke or fog generating composition.
- 4. A smoke or fog generating composition as set forth in claim 1, consisting essentially of
- 34 wt.% ammoniumperchlorate
- 31.3 wt% zinc oxide
- 15.0 wt.% polychloroisoprene
- 9.4 wt.% di-octyl-phthalate and
