Patent ID: 6872266

Claim:
A method of making an energetic composition for low temperature storage comprising: mixing at least one binder compound having at least one pendant azido group component with at least one plasticizer component; heating said binder(s) and said plasticizer(s) mixture until the mixture is homogeneous; cooling said mixture to room temperature; adding at least one diacetylene component to said mixture without the aid of a solvent to produce longer polymer chains on said binder(s); adding at least one metal, metallic, non-metal fuel, oxidizer component(s) to said mixture at room temperature; and adding at least one tri- or higher polyacetylene component without the aid of a solvent to produce a homogeneous solid, elastomeric composition which is formed by chemically reacting said azido groups of said polymer binder(s) by cyclo-addition of said triacetylene component(s) to form triazole linkages, wherein said energetic composition is recyclable.
