It is a charge component or gun propellant component that can eliminate or reduce the secondary combustion flame at the muzzle or tail during firing. When the gun is launched, because of the interaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen in propellant gas with oxygen in the air, muzzle flame and gun tail flame are often generated, mostly potassium salt. It becomes powder when fired and escapes from the muzzle together with propellant gas, making it difficult for propellant gas to contact with oxygen in the air, improving the ignition point of carbon oxide and hydrogen, and promoting fracture of gas phase chain reaction. The dosage varies based on the caliber, initial velocity, muzzle pressure, and gas temperature of the artillery. Usually 2% -15% of the charge.
