KClO4/Mg flash powder

[BenHutchinson1]

KCLO4/Mg burns bright and hot but doesn't explode. That requires gunpowder which is either C+S+KNO3 or C+S+KCLO4. So I believe what you are adding to the Mg that you believe you are adding KCLO4, you are actually burning KCLO4 based gunpowder with your Mg.

kclo4 is match powder rght?

[o0Dreamlike0o]

Ya.. Keep on dreaming.

[mrspacee]

No, as far as i know match powder is Potassium chlorate, dye and a glass powder.

[antiswattt2]

and binder, and a tiny amount of sulfur and red phosphorus (:

[mrspacee]

Not as far as i know, all the red phosphorus is on the striker box

[antiswattt2]

what is it then in matchpowder that fuels the kclo3? q: and my older filtration stuff from when i filtered the impurities off the kclo3 water burns with a red phosphorus flame (: but its a very small amount!

[bustincapz]

no kclo3

[o0Dreamlike0o]

So what do you prefer, and what are the differences between KClO4/Al and KClO4/Mg? And what's more stable?

[davidkoster]

I think KClO4/Mg is more powerfull,but KClO4/Al is more stable.

[o0Dreamlike0o]

Well.. Mg flash produces a lot of light, so I think more energy is transferred into light rather than in heat (heat makes the air expand which gives the power). So I wouldn't be too sure about that..

[ExtremeRacing]

No , magnesium gives more heat than Al and magnesium is a better reduktor.

kickass flash powder :D
