Safety Of Veline stars With Uncoated MgAl?

10 April 2012 - 12:54 AM

So i made some Veline stars. Generally i used some c6 mix as priming. But i understood that not all stars actually lit.

So i think i ll try the Veline prime that uses Potassium Dichromate.

I dont keep my stars for more than a week generally. So will Potassium Dichromate with uncoated MgAl is big problem? And yes there is some moisture in the mix and environment.

P.S. Should i consider to coat MgAl from now on? I mean it helps with colors/safety too much?

Thanks a lot.

Aluminium Tubes

26 June 2010 - 04:55 PM

Hi. I was thinking about constructing aluminium mortar tubes for 2.5" and 4" shells.

What i want to ask is: Are they really safe? I know that they use it in firework industries, but are those tubes safe?

Also, do the use anything else than simple aluminium? Or are they created with a special design?

Thanks a lot:)

Making big particles to powder

11 February 2009 - 07:50 PM

Hello there.I have some barium nitrate which has formed something like rocks,if you can understand me, and i want to milled it in order to make it fine powder.So i put it in my ball mill,of course in an new jar with some lead balls.What i noticed is that the colour of barium nitrate changed from pure white to grey and this happens because lead is contaminating it.

And i want to know if that is as dangerous as i think and what else can i do in order to make it be fine powder.Thanks
