itwasntme Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 I am sure we have all discovered a composition, that was interesting. I have invented a few, but discovered more. Here are a few i have discovered:8 Potassium nitrate2 CharcoalWith the charcoal I have, it burns an awesome pink internal flame, with orange outerflame. Very beautiful, but might not work with your charcoal. I use cowboy charcoal. 4 Potassium nitrate6 zinc Hard to light in a pile, but when pressed into a tube, makes VERY good smokes. I use a small red aluminum fueled star to ignite. Also, if you use a thin paper tube, or a CPVC tube, there is a rod of yellow shit left. It is very hard, and fragile. I am thinking it is zinc oxide or something. 75sodium/potassium or strontium nitrate15 charcoal10 sulfur20-30 coarse magnesium "chips" My magnesium is coarse enough to stay on a window screen, but has some smaller fines mixed in, like 40-60 mesh.With sodium nitate, makes a very bright flare. Strontium nitrate,is a bit hard to light, even with a blowtorch! Most people know this one, but I will post it because I like it a lot5 KNO3/Sodium nitrate/Strontium Nitrate3 Aluminum2 Sulfur I used kno3, amkes a nice white flare, sodium nitrate is extremely bright and easier to ignite for some reason, strontium nitrate is a pale yellow, not red. The aluminum probably fucks the red up. 2 Potassium nitrate1 Sulfur I have no idea how discovered this, but when in a small fountain(a peice of aluminum foil rolled up) this makes a forceful orangeish flame. If I find the videos to these comps, I will post them.
pudidotdk Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 The first one is just sulphurless BP. Nothing new there
h0lx Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 Why? Just post it in the compositions section, much better for people searching for compos too, as they are neatly sorted by threads.
itwasntme Posted June 14, 2007 Author Posted June 14, 2007 Holx, post each individual composition? Also, I know it is sulfurless BP, but most people wouldnt know that it burns pinkish.
h0lx Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 Blackpowder burns pinkish also, just like most compositions with only K salts in it.
