A couple of notes regarding this demonstration: The combination of potassium nitrate and sugar results in a highly flammable mixture. Notice that I only make a small amount (less than 10 grams). If the material is overheated, it can ignite within the pan. Also, when burning a sample, I used a fume hood with fire extinguishers nearby and proper ppe. Long story short, while the combination is simple, it is a dangerous reaction once ignited, and should only be done by professionals.

I mixed up saltpeter (potassium nitrate) and sugar 1:1 by volume and used to cut a small slit in old tennis ball, just big enough to get the tip of a small funnel in. The I would fill up the ball, insert a 3" length of fuse in the slit, and then light it and roll the ball down the street. When the mix ignited, the ball would take off like it was possessed.

A tip for you guys, if you want a much bigger reaction you can use Potassium chlorate (KClO3) instead of potassium nitrate. And mix your potassium chlorate with Glycerol or kerosene(soluble with Potassium chlorate) instead of sugar Stay safe guys, because this is going to create some freking big reaction that can create much bigger explosion.

[@SilntObsvr]

FWIW, sorbitol reportedly works better for this than regular table sugar. Sorbitol melts, rather than needing water to dissolve (that then has to be cooked off), and it melts at a lower temperature (less risk of ignition while mixing), *and* sorbitol will *dissolve* the potassium nitrate, so the resulting mixture is more uniform and more intimate (allowing it to burn faster and more completely). It'll work better still if you add around 1% by weight of red rust, ground fine (everything for this rocket candy should be ground fine before you start to melt it).

[@gustavrsh]

Iron Oxide does speed up the reaction, which is bad if you're launching an actual rocket. Rocket candy already burns very fast compared to other propellants, meaning it generates more pressure in the chamber. Too much pressure and you have an unscheduled disassembly. Source: I help design and build rockets, our best rocket went to about 3300 m (11k ft)

[@SilntObsvr]

@@gustavrshYou do need to static test and design your ratio of burn area to nozzle throat area to suit your propellant -- just as you'd do with ammonium perchlorate composite propellants (with or without aluminum powder) or the WWII mixture of nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin. I've seen the exact same propellant in the same size grain range from burn time of about 0.4 seconds, to around 6 seconds. All a matter of what shape the grain has, which controls the amount of burning surface and whether that burning area increases or decreases through the burn. Yes, burn *too* fast and your can rupture your casing or blow out a closure. Overall, though, presuming your casing and closures can take the pressure, you'd usually want higher pressure and regression rate to get higher thrust -- which is often preferred with unguided rockets, because more of the impulse will be applied before the gravity turn sets in (that is, your rocket will go higher vs. further downrange).

[@tarnvedra9952]

Yes sorbitol never caught fire on the stove and burned of my hair and eyebrows. I made little smokebombs out of this stuff, you roll a ball and push broken off match inside so that half of matchhead is protruding. Then just strike and throw.

For everyone wondering: sucrose is just sugar, and potassium nitrate can be bought at places like Lowe’s and Home Depot, in a product called stump remover. Be advised, the chemical Potassium Nitrate (the one needed to make the sugar rocket) is a flame oxidizer, which accelerates flames. Also, the gases produced from the reaction can be hazardous, so be careful when igniting the sugar rocket near others.

@@frogz probably not in Australia. But something along those lines yes. Even if it's just kids, less lose eyes or fingers without access to rapid oxidising agents.

Yea I remember you could get a 5 pound bag of straight up saltpeter when I was in middle school in the early 90s to make huge smoke bombs that would blanket my entire block in thick white smoke. I tried to find the same stuff on a whim in the early 2000s and the guy at the neighborhood pharmacy started asking me all sorts of weird questions and said it wasn't available any more cause people make bombs with it.

@@joes2144 Yerp. We thought we'd be clever and go get some from a butcher "to make sausages". He gave us about a teaspoon for the 50Kg we said we were making. Aw.

These chemistry channels have to all secretly be anarchists, with the kind of knowledge they just casually drop to anyone and everyone lol

[@robertmuailupebaude3447]

It's for educational purposes, the chemical people are like Bruno we talk about them, just like the video while singing

[@AnUtterSimpleton]

@@robertmuailupebaude3447 very educational 😉

You don't have to be an anarchist to know what chemical reactions are.

We have a massive group of people who make sugat motors at my rocketry club and man those things are something else

Just your casual potassium nitrate, did you use the French method?

[@lucasthompson1650]

If you can’t get potassium nitrate you can use sodium nitrate, calcium nitrate, or for a little more “oomph”, potassium perchlorate. Once mixed with sugar, it might be classified as a rocket motor or even a binary explosive in your area, and there may be restrictions on transporting the mixed compound. Always get familiar with your local laws before you start breaking them.😎

Lye ?

[@lucasthompson1650]

@@AnonyMous-kp8zj No, lye won’t work. Lye is (mostly) sodium hydroxide. Famous for the “This is a chemical burn.” scene in the movie “Fight Club”.

can you extract these from common household items? asking for a friend

[@lucasthompson1650]

@@Mr.__Sofi I think white granulated sugar and potassium nitrate (aka “stump remover” or “saltpetre”) are already household items.
