Ahh, tried to cook it too fast with to high heat huh? lol. Wow the ignition point is like 600 degrees. You must have been WAY OVER. A candy thermometer helps a lot when your starting out until you get to the point where you can eyeball it like I can. Just enough heat to barely boil the water. No more. As the water boils off, it requires less and less heat to keep it at the required temperature.

i dont have a gram scale does any one know the measurement in table spoons or somthing???

x2xbrandtx2x (December 31, 1969 at 5:59 pm)

Hmm. well the ammount of fe203 in the propellant is only about 2% so the total weight gain is inconsequencial. Give it a try though with the Al203 and see how it performs. I'm not sure it would have the same catlyzing affect as fe203 but give it a try anyhow. Who knows. It might turn out to work quite well.

Why don't use Al2O3, aluminium is lighter than iron so the rocket could be lighter than Fe2O3. what do you thinK?
