Semicarbazine/manganese complex and gas generator for air bag

This invention relates to an air bag inflation gas generator to feed combustion gas for inflation of air bags such as air bags for absorbing collision shocks, life jackets, rafts, and escape chutes. When the generator is exposed to a high temperature environment such as fire and a temperature of a second end plate rises, heat of the second end plate is transmitted to an ignition agent via a heat sensing means, the ignition agent is ignited at a temperature thoroughly lower than the firing temperature of gas generating agents, and the gas generating agents burn.

Air bag inflation gas generator

Provided herein is a gas-generating composition which forms combustion residues that can be easily captured. The gas-generating composition is composed of an azide of alkali metal or alkaline earth metal, oxidizer, and 0.1 to 10 wt % of one or two kinds of solder glass represented by BaO. SiO.sub.2. PbO. Alkali or B.sub.2 O.sub.3. TiO.sub.2. SiO.sub.2. Na.sub.2 O. The incorporation of solder glass reduces the weight of the filter to capture combustion residues by 5 to 30 wt %.
