Testing My Kno3

07 March 2008 - 08:20 PM

Hello Everyone,

Today I got my kno3 from GD, I dont have any sulfur but yeah! I thought id test it with just charcoal see if it was the real deal...

So I weighed 7.5g of kno3 and 2.5g of charcoal, and it sucks!

My question is, is sulfur needed to produce a fast burning bp, or is my kno3 naff?

My kno3 is from chempak and the label on the bag reads:

"POTASSIUM NITRATE
Nitrogen(N) 13%
Potassium Oxide(K2O)
Soluble in water 46%(K38.2%)"

Any help?

Thanks guys.
