ABSTRACT:
An igniter (18) provides rapid longitudinal and radial propagation of the ignition reaction. The igniter may comprise a pyrotechnic material and an inorganic binder, such as silica, carried on a carrier web (10) which may be fiber-glass. One or more layers of coated web (10) are disposed to provide an igniter (18) of cylindrical configuration and having a hollow core. The coated layers are permeable to the ignition reaction to facilitate radial propagation of ignition. The hollow core and the continuous nature of the pyrotechnic layers promotes longitudinal propagation of ignition. The igniter may consist mostly or entirely of inorganic materials to reduce or eliminate the formation of carbon monoxide upon ignition, and may be contained within a radially perforated sheath (20) to form a radial ignition device (25).
