Abstract

CONTAINMENT OF THE STICK PROPELLANT WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED USING HEAT SHRINKABLE POLYOLIFIN FILM. THIS WILL ALLOW REPLACING THE NITROCELLULOSE CARTRIDGE CASE BUT CONTINUING TO USE THE CASE COMPONENT PARTS, SUCH AS THE BASE END CAP. STICK PROPELLANT WILL BE BUNDLED AND ASSEMBLED WITH THE COMPONENT PARTS USING AN ASSEMBLY FIXTURE, OR HOLDER. THE POLYOLIFIN FILM WILL BE SLIPPED OVER THE PARTS AND PASSED THROUGH A HOT AIR TUNNEL CAUSING SHRINKING OF THE FILM AND RETENTION OF ALL COMPONENTS.
