ABSTRACT:
A gas generating device has a housing in combination with a device for igniting a gas generating composition located within the housing. The gas generating composition is 5-aminotetrazole combined with at least two inorganic oxidizers selected from potassium nitrate, potassium per-chlorate, manganese dioxide, iron oxide, and copper oxide. The housing has at least one aperture therethrough to allow the exit from the housing of gas generated therein following ignition of the gas generating composition, but restricting the flow of gas from the housing such that the gas exiting the housing has a carbon monoxide content of not greater than 200 parts per million. Such a gas generating device may be used for inflating an airbag in a vehicle safety system.
