2 kno 3 + 4 al + s → k 2 s + n 2 + 2 al 2 o 3 The composition is approximately 59% KNO 3 : 31.6% Al : 9.4% S by weight for the reactants of the above stoichiometrically balanced equation. For best results, "German Dark" aluminum should be used, with air float sulfur, and finely ball milled pure potassium nitrate.
