“…Work carried out by Puszynski related to organic acid coating agents and other additives has helped address some of these concerns and allowed for some of the first water-based processing methods for MIC-based primers that avoid the handling of hazardous dry MIC powder [54]. Further, investigations over the last decade carried out jointly by the US Army and Navy under SERDP and ESTCP programs [55,56] have extended this work, allowing for the incorporation and successful demonstration of Al/Bi 2 O 3 MIC materials into common military primers, such as the Army primer #41 and the Navy PVU-1/A. As such, MICs have been shown as viable, drop-in replacements to legacy primer formulations and allow for elimination of toxic lead styphnate, antimony trisulfide, and barium nitrate.…”
