---------=====| SANctuary Presents |=====------------- Mixing Your own Flash Powder It is easy to get a file on how to make salutes, or how to make "meal powder," but, in the files I've read, they just use the generic term "flash powder" to mean the explosive stuff in your fireworks. There are 2 types of explosives. Type I uses a non-explosive flash powder. "How can this be?" you ask? Well, the retort from a type I explosive comes from the rupturing of the case, not from the detonation of the powder. But we've all lit off M-80s, which have only a flimsy casing, which couldn't possibly account for the loud, ear-ringing bang you get from one. That comes from a more powerful powder which explodes when lit. This is a type ][ explosive. Potassium and barium nitrate powders, as well as black powder are used in type I explosives. Potassium chlorate and perchlorate powders are used in type ][ explosives. The list below has formulas for both types. Potassium perchlorate mixtures: 1- 50% potassium perchlorate 25% dark pyro aluminum 25% sulfur flour 2- 70% potassium perchlorate 30% black german aluminum 3- 50% potassium perchlorate 30% black antimony sulfide 20% sulfur flour 4- 75% potassium perchlorate 25% dark pyro aluminum 5- 60% potassium perchlorate 40% sulfur flour Potassium chlorate mixtures (note 1) 1- 50% potassium chlorate 50% red arsenic sulfide 2- 60% potassium chlorate 25% sulfur flour 10% potassium nitrate 5% red arsenic sulfide Barium/potassium nitrate (type I) 1- 50% potassium nitrate 30% sulfur flour 20% dark pyro aluminum 2- 50% potassium nitrate 50% 100 mesh magnesium 3- 60% potassium nitrate 30% sulfur flour 10% charcoal dust 4- 50% barium nitrate (note 2) 50% 100 mesh magnesium 5- 50% strontium nitrate (note 2) 50% 100 mesh magnesium note 1- Chlorate mixtures are EXTREMELY dangerous. Don't mix them unless you like playing russian roulette. note 2- These mixtures give colored flashes. Mixing fireworks is very dangerous, and, I personally would never, ever, not-in- a-million-years ever mix them. For all you sickos out there who do, I assume no responsibility for any damage you fiendishly cause, or any injury that results from the manufature or use of the explosives detailed here.
