Investigation of thermal behavior of energetic and non-energetic binders on luminous efficiency of high performance miniature flares

Miniature flares containing magnesium/sodium nitrate compounded with different binders were studied for increasing luminosity and luminous efficiency in various fuel oxidizer ratio and flare diameters. Unsaturated polyester, Bisphenol-A epoxy resin, calcium resinate, and nitrocellulose were used as...
