goro20 Posted September 11, 2018 Author Posted September 11, 2018 Thick cotton twine soaked in a KNO3 solution will smolder.so just like sugar and kno3 in a pan to make smoke mix. but instead just only using kno3 and then adding the cotton twine. and after that removing it and letting it dry?

Richtee Posted September 13, 2018 Posted September 13, 2018 A cigarette makes a long-burning smoldering fuse. Not the “new” ones Damned things go out if you don’t actually smoke them. Sometimes even when you do
Plasmaniax Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 What is the most efficient mix of KNO3 and H2O though?
OldMarine Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 A saturated solution is as good as you can get. Boil some water and stir in KNO3 until it won't dissolve any more.
Arthur Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 The old texts give lots of formulae some involving mercury and lead compounds that may not pass state of California regs! Sometimes you do have to read the old books.
