Improved NF.sub.4.sup.+ compositions for solid propellant NF.sub.3 -F.sub.2 gas generators are described which produce NF.sub.3 and F.sub.2 free of gaseous Lewis acids and do not require clinker forming additives for their complexing. The novel self-clinkering compositions (NF.sub.4).sub.2 SnF.sub.6, NF.sub.4 SnF.sub.5, (NF.sub.4).sub.2 TiF.sub.6, NF.sub.4 Ti.sub.2 F.sub.9, NF.sub.4 Ti.sub.3 F.sub.13, and NF.sub.4 Ti.sub.6 F.sub.25 and processes for their production are disclosed.
An improved NF.sub.4.sup.+ composition for solid propellant NF.sub.3 -F.sub.2 gas generators and high detonation pressure explosives is described which combines high oxidizer content with good thermal stability. The novel composition has the formula (NF.sub.4).sub.2 MnF.sub.6, and a process for its production is disclosed.
Improved compositions are described for solid propellant NF.sub.3 -F.sub.2 as generators using (NF.sub.4).sub.2 TiF.sub.6 and clinkering agents derived from LiF, KF, and NaF, either alone or in mixtures.
An improved process for the production of advanced NF.sub.4.sup.+ salts is described utilizing graphite salts as an HF and oxidizer resistant anion exchange medium.
