A process for producing caseless propellant charges containing impact-sensitive material comprising the steps of impregnating a pre-formed propellent charge with a solution of impact-sensitive material and vaporizing the solvent from the propellent.

Caseless propellant charge

A pyrotechnical sealing material comprises a heat-foamable synthetic resin capable of being foamed with the aid of a burnable pyrotechnical composition. The sealing material is in the form of a cord having a core made of the pyrotechnical composition and a casing separated from the core by a flexible sheath. The casing is formed from the heat-foamable synthetic resin.

Pyrotechnical sealing cord

A separating element comprises a body member for securing at least two parts together. The body member has an electrically ignitable separating charge disposed in tamped form within a recess therein, means operatively associated with the separating charge, which when a predetermined temperature has been reached, renders the explosive effect of the separating charge ineffective and ignition means for igniting the separating charge within said recess when separation of the parts is required.
