Abstract
The present invention relates to methods and processes to prepare pre-mixed compositions that can be combined to form pyrotechnic compositions in mixed multiple parts. In exemplary embodiments, a binder curing agent ingredient is premixed with pyrotechnic fuels and can also include other pyrotechnic additives and processing aides. Other binder ingredients such as a binder resin can be premixed with the pyrotechnic oxidizers and can also include other pyrotechnic additives and processing aides. The resulting mixtures are not explosive and are much safer to handle and easier to store for extended shelf-life over a final pyrotechnic composition. Further, the pre-mixed mixtures can be stored in bulk until needed and rapidly combined to achieve the final pyrotechnic composition.
