  2. Combustion light-gas gun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustion_light-gas_gun

    A combustion light-gas gun (CLGG) is a projectile weapon that utilizes the explosive force of low molecular-weight combustible gases, such as hydrogen mixed with oxygen, as propellant. When the gases are ignited, they burn, expand and propel the projectile out of the barrel with higher efficiency relative to solid propellant and have achieved ...

  3. Pyroelectricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyroelectricity

    This is the pyroelectric effect. All polar crystals are pyroelectric, so the 10 polar crystal classes are sometimes referred to as the pyroelectric classes. Pyroelectric materials can be used as infrared and millimeter wavelength radiation detectors. An electret is the electrical equivalent of a permanent magnet.

    [9]: 139 It was passed through rollers to form paper-thin sheets, which were cut into flakes of the desired size. [7]: 289–292 The resulting propellant, known as pyrocellulose, contains somewhat less nitrogen than guncotton does, and is less volatile. A particularly good feature of the propellant is that it will not detonate unless it is ...

    The size distribution of the crystals can be also altered, e.g. by Ostwald ripening. Thermochemical decomposition starts to occur at the crystal nonhomogeneities, e.g. intragranular interfaces between crystal growth zones, on damaged parts of the crystals, or on interfaces of different materials (e.g. crystal/binder).
