Abstract:
1. A method of producing a flare composition, the method comprising the steps of: mixing magnesium within the range of approximately eighteen weight percent (18%) to approximately thirty weight percent (30%) of the composition and a two-part curable binder system within the range of approximately four weight percent (4%) to approximately seven point five weight percent (7.5%) of the composition, blending sodium nitrate within the range of approximately eighteen weight percent (18%) to approximately thirty-eight weight percent (38%) of the composition, barium nitrate within the range of approximately twenty-six weight percent (26%) to approximately thirty-six weight percent (36%) of the composition, and polyvinyl chloride within the range of approximately seven weight percent (7%) to approximately twelve weight percent (12%) of the composition, mixing the sodium nitrate, barium nitrate, and polyvinyl chloride mixture to the binder system coated magnesium mixture in a mixing bowl to provide the composition, wiping the sides of the mixing bowl, screening the composition, aging the composition for a period of time, and pressing the composition into the flare composition.
