psyco_1322 Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 Im from BB and we have a thread for random questions but as far as I can tell you guys dont so I started a new one. If it is a problem I can delete it if the mods want. Anway.... I remember back awail in the comp area there was some easy colored star comps using chems like barium perchlorate, strontium perchlorate, etc. posted by some russian guy IIRC. Does anyone have a link to the thread discussing the making of those chems? Thanks for all the help in advance.
asilentbob Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 The random thread is in general discussion and chat. Umm... i think i recall a thread on barium and strontium perchlorate... it would be in this section (chemistry). The basic reactions for nitrates are generally either: NH4NO3 + xCO3 ---> (NH4)2CO3 + xNO3(NH4)2CO3 ---> NH3 + CO2 + H2O or HNO3 + xCO3 ---> xNO3 + CO2 + H2O For perchlorate it could possibly ammonium perchlorate and x carbonate, or perchloric acid. No gaurantees.
qwezxc12 Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 They're located at the old APC site, in the compositions forum. Several separate threads titled "Russian Fires"...Red, Green, Yellow, and Blue. Mostly made with metallic Perchlorates IIRC. Not all of the pictures are hosted these days... Link
Mumbles Posted June 14, 2007 Posted June 14, 2007 I think I moved all those threads over. All the pictures got deleted though from their server.
