The "detonator" in an airbag is composed of sodium azide. Very dangerous stuff, it's similar to what's in blasting caps and the primers of center fire cartridges.
One of my Professors had an accident as a child messing with that stuff. Partially destroyed his hands, leaving them mangled. He said to me, "Imagine trying to open the door of your house by draping a steak across the door knob.". He hands looked like claws with band aids on the fingertips and were sensitive to cold. I dislike airbags. Gene Last edited by GeneW; 07-31-2009 at 08:53 PM. |
