ABSTRACT:
The composition of this invention contains red phosphorus, magnesium, sod nitrate, and an epoxy binder. It can optionally contain silica to aid in processing. The magnesium is used to sustain the smoke produced by the red phosphorus for a period greater than 5 minutes for screening of military operations. Further, the composition does not exhibit any increased sensitivity to impact or friction over traditional smoke-producing compositions. This is the case even though the composition contains a high-level of red phosphorus.
