Is there a difference when you use Fe2O3 or FeO2?

[travshouse]

Fe02 Is going to give you a much weaker reaction and because of lower Oxy content. The consistency of molten metal will be very thick causing Rapid cooling thus making your reaction pointless.

Thermite cuts steel like a hot knife through butter. Jonathan Cole devised ways to cut beams vertically, cut columns horizontally, cut off bolt heads, and cut 3/4 of the way through a hollow box column with charges placed on the inside. See my video:

@TheoriginalGrumphy

So according to you, steel isn't malleable?

[lucasrenitif]

@deltaalpha21074 yeah, and in an office... nothing smells like ozone? oh but on the contrary, offices are full of ozone

also, after it would burn people wouldn't really care for the smell, burning rubber , paper and flesh is a lot more noticeable scent.

[deltaalpha21074]

@lucasrenitif Yeah sure get some sparklers and take a deep wiff after they burn out ---always smell of OZONE even from metal ...

[lucasrenitif]

@deltaalpha21074 thermite is odorless. it's Aluminium and iron oxide, there is nothing to make a smell.

[lucasrenitif]

@travshouse and the fact Fe (II ) is much less active while Fe (III) is actually a very powerful oxidizing agent... yeah, not much use of thermite with Fe(II)

oxygen content is actually higher in FeO2 but there is no such thing as FeO2

there are FeO

Fe2O3

Fe3O4 which is a mixture of the two upper where neither can e obtained in free form.

and that's it.

so i safely assumed the comment was about Fe(II) oxide

Its funny cause there have been numerous examples with a bucket off thermite melting right trough the hood off a car and the engine..Furthermore..Iff thermite could not melt steal or damage it like official claim, with a 170 pounds laid around a steal beam, wich was left undamaged..How the (/&%(/&%(hell did the fire do the job then...It couldnt have in a million freaking years..Debunkers are just lamers

[AfricanPyro]

how many grams was it?

[Merlin5x5]

Cool, to simulate a WTC core column, you just have to load EIGHT of those 1/2 steel plates in a row, and turn the surface up to 90 degrees. The core columns were VERTICAL, Remember? Then you have to figure out that Heat doesn't transfer SIDEWAYS very well. LOL, BIG FAIL there, fella.

@travshouse I was thinking of getting Fe3O4, do you think it'll work with aluminium?
