barium nitrate

It can also be made by heating barium nitrate.

It consists of a mixture of equal weights of barium nitrate and guncotton.

Like all soluble barium compounds, barium nitrate is toxic by ingestion or inhalation.

The filling was a mixture of black powder, barium nitrate, and potassium perchlorate, and does not require a detonator.

Therefore, more and more firework producers have begun to use most stable compound such as barium nitrate and copper carbonate.

His formulation (dubbed Schultze Powder) comprised nitrolignose impregnated with saltpetre or barium nitrate.

At elevated temperatures, barium nitrate decomposes to barium oxide, nitrogen dioxide, and oxygen:

Various nitrates have been used (nitre, potassium nitrate, barium nitrate, ammonium nitrate).

Thermate composition is a thermite one enriched with a salt-based oxidizer (usually nitrates, e.g. barium nitrate, or peroxides).

The second requires combining barium chloride with a heated solution of sodium nitrate, causing barium nitrate crystals to separate from the mixture.

Iridite 14-2, a chromate conversion coating for aluminum, contains chromium(IV) oxide, barium nitrate and sodium silico fluoride.

To create green sparks, fireworks use barium salts, such as barium chlorate, barium nitrate crystals, or barium chloride, also used for green fireplace logs.

In 1863, Prussian artillery captain Johann F. E. Schultze patented a small arms propellent of nitrated hardwood impregnated with saltpetre or barium nitrate.

The catalyst CrCuO CuO BaCrO is prepared by addition of a solution containing both barium nitrate and copper(II) nitrate to a solution of ammonium chromate.

Each of the incendiary tubes was a 90 mm long, 25 mm diameter hollow steel cylinder, filled with rubber thermite (phosphorus, vulcanized rubber, natural rubber, stearic acid, sulphur and barium nitrate) and ignited through holes on both sides.

The barium sulfide can then be dissolved with other elements to form other compounds, such as barium nitrate, which in turn can be thermally decompressed into barium oxide, which eventually can yield pure barium after a reaction with aluminium.
