2. Potassium nitrate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_nitrate

   Potassium nitrate is a chemical compound with a sharp, salty, bitter taste and the chemical formula K N O 3.It is a potassium salt of nitric acid.This salt consists of potassium cations K + and nitrate anions NO − 3, and is therefore an alkali metal nitrate.

   Potassium nitrate is an oxidizer so storing it near fire hazards or reducing agents should be avoided to minimise risk in case of a fire. Product Identification

4. Flash powder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_powder

   Potassium nitrate/magnesium flash powder should be mixed and used immediately and not stored due to its tendency of self-ignition. If magnesium is not a very fine powder, it can be passivated with linseed oil or potassium dichromate. The passivated magnesium flash powder is stable and generally safe to store. 2 KNO 3 + 5 Mg → K 2 O + N 2 + 5 MgO

   The most common oxidizer is potassium nitrate (KNO 3). Potassium nitrate is most commonly found in tree stump remover. Additives can be many different substances, and either act as catalysts or enhance the aesthetics of the liftoff or flight. A traditional sugar propellant formulation is typically prepared in a 65:35 (13:7) oxidizer to fuel ...

6. Potassium nitrite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_nitrite

   Potassium nitrite (distinct from potassium nitrate) is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula K N O 2. It is an ionic salt of potassium ions K + and nitrite ions NO 2 −, which forms a white or slightly yellow, hygroscopic crystalline powder that is soluble in water. [1] It is a strong oxidizer and may accelerate the combustion of ...

9. Niter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niter

   Niter or nitre [5] is the mineral form of potassium nitrate, KNO 3.It is a soft, white, highly soluble mineral found primarily in arid climates or cave deposits. Historically, the term niter was not well differentiated from natron, both of which have been very vaguely defined but generally refer to compounds of sodium or potassium joined with carbonate or nitrate ions.
