Ejection charge refers to a small amount of propellant or explosive material used in model rocketry or similar applications to deploy or separate components of a system, such as a parachute or payload, from the main body of a rocket after its ascent. When ignited, the ejection charge produces a burst of gas that creates pressure, pushing out the parachute or other components.
