Ignition of aluminum w/ MAPP GAS/OXYGEN torch
Loading...
Uploaded by Mattersmatter on Mar 30, 2007
In this vid i was just messing around w/ the MAPP-OXY torch and eventually i was able to get a vid of the ignition and combustion of aluminum. I also used it as a way to mess around with a new video editing program. hence, the lame/ somewhat over-done effects and music.

Pennies post-1982: 97.5% zinc and 2.5% copper... LOL (where is the nickel?)
-
No those temps are CELSIUS. I have melted 1/4" copper wire in a puddle with MAPP gas alone! That is 1093C or 1983 Fahrenheit. The white metal in pennies is ZINC NOT NICKEL and yes it is combustible when strongly heated.

it can be, if you know how to use it

LOL i dont think any of those effects were even worth the video itself.

*goes to get periodic table*
But what about gold & platinum?
...The alkali metals will always be my favourite.

We just bought a MAPP gas torch and if thats MAPP and oxygen, then MAPP itself shouldn't be that crazy... I'm guessing

pure MAPP is 70% better and hotter than propane. temps up to 1340 farenheight are acheivable with pure MAPP. Propane can get to 1050 at best. MAPP oxy has the potential to get up to 2950 Farenheight. If you crank it all the way up a MAPPOXY will vaporize steel with ease. You can get the nickle content of standard US pennies to explode violently in cyan flames with just a propane torch.

or oxy mapp for that matter...

I've gotten a whole roll of pennies to fuse into a solid chunk of nickle, wich i then hit with the super hot mixture and ignited the whole brick. Vid of that coming soon.
