Abstract

Gas generating propellants with flame temperatures below 1400.degree. K. (isobaric) based on duroplastic and/or thermoplastic binders containing up to 80% by weight of triaminoguanidine nitrate as the chief gas generating component which can be cast or pressed into shapes having good chemical stability and excellent mechanical properties useful in propulsion engines and energy yielding systems.
