| abstract |
A gas generating agent for air bags, which has such favorable characteritics as moderate combustion performances, a low combustion temperature, a reduced content of toxic components, such as CO and NOx, in the gas formed by the combustion, and a higher safety than that of conventional azide-based gas generating agents. The agent comprises at least one gas generating base selected among urazole and metal salts thereof and an oxidizing agent as the active ingredients. |
