Calcium carbonate, with the chemical formula CaCO3, is a colorless powder that reacts slowly with NH4ClO4 in the presence of moisture. It is inexpensive, abundant, and has low toxicity.
In fireworks, calcium carbonate is primarily used as a filler material to create white sparks and other effects. It is also used as a cheap substitute for strontium salts in toy fireworks, although the resulting flame is less beautiful.
The use of calcium carbonate as a filler material helps reduce costs and provides a safe and effective way to create desired effects in fireworks.
Calcium carbonate is typically mixed with other chemicals to create pyrotechnic compositions. Proper handling and ventilation are important to avoid irritation.
Calcium carbonate has minimal environmental impact. Proper disposal practices should be followed to prevent pollution.
When handling calcium carbonate, it is important to wear gloves, goggles, and a dust mask to avoid irritation. Proper ventilation is also recommended.
Store calcium carbonate in a cool, dry place away from heat and moisture. Keep containers tightly sealed to prevent contamination.
Ensure that calcium carbonate meets relevant quality standards and regulations for use in fireworks production to ensure safety and compliance.
As pyrotechnic technology advances, there may be innovations in the use of calcium carbonate and other materials, leading to improved performance and new effects in fireworks displays.
