Oxidisers

  • The function of the oxidiser is to produce the oxygen needed  for the explosives inside the firework to burn/combust. These oxidisers can be things called nitrates, chlorates or perchlorates.

 

  • Without Oxidisers fireworks would be very boring as the fireworks would not explode, they would just go up and come streight back down.

 

  • Oxidisers are very dangerouse though becouse they make fireworks highly flamable and can make nearby gasses and combustable liquids/solids more flamable aswell.

 

  • They are also very dangerouse becouse they Lower the ignition temperature of anything combustable.
