SMITH FALLS, Ontario CAN -- Propulsion Polymers is pleased to announce that it has completed the first in a series of tests designed to provided a non-pyrotechnic ignition sequence for its full line of products.

Propulsion Polymers began designing and testing a non-pyrotechnic scheme in response to the certification and regulatory needs of the Canadian market, and to the shortage of Aerotech ignitor grains, owing to the recent events at Aerotech. Plans are underway to provide a non-pyrotechnic ignition sequence for all users of Propulsion Polymers products throughout the world.

Two ignition schemes are under development and test. The first scheme is largely compatible with existing Hypertek® GSE; owners of Hypertek GSE will be able to use their GSE both for Hypertek and Propulsion Polymers motors, with only minor plumbing changes required to switch between Hypertek and Propulsion Polymers motors. A second, GOX-free, non-pyrotechnic scheme is currently also under development.
