Ive been looking around on Google and the ACB search, and I wanted to know if anything happened when you mixed Aluminum Powder and Potassium Nitrate and lit them ro ignited them some way.

I searched on Ebay and I saw that Aluminum powder does something when an oxidizer is around and thats what Potassium Nitrate is. So any thing?

ur a dick...

Well, if you mix aluminum powder (Al) with potassium perchlorate (KClO4) you get what is known as flash powder, which if ignited makes a flash; thus the reason for the name flash powder. I myself have never tried Al/S/KNO3 flash powder, but I would think you would get the same reaction; the only difference I can think of would be that it wouldn't be as strong as Al/KClO4.

ud get an old pottasium nitrate (it be an alumni (i couldnt help it bad joke haha))

with this mix(50% potassium nitrate, 30% sulfur, 20% aluminum powder) you get a really slow burning flash powder

it just makes a cheaper and far less powerful version of 'flash powder'
