Aluminum - Al - used to produce silver and white flames and sparks. It is a common component of sparklers., Antimony - Sb - used to create firework glitter effects., Barium - Ba - used to create green colors in fireworks, and it can also help stabilize other volatile elements., Calcium - Ca - used to deepen firework colors. Calcium salts produce orange fireworks., Carbon - C - one of the main components of black powder, which is used as a propellant in fireworks. Provides the fuel for a firework., Chlorine - Cl - an important component of many oxidizers in fireworks. Several of the metal salts that produce colors contain chlorine., Copper - Cu - produce blue colors in fireworks., Iron - Fe - used to produce sparks. The heat of the metal determines the color of the sparks., Lithium - Li - a metal that is used to impart a red color to fireworks. Lithium carbonate, in particular, is a common colorant., Magnesium - Mg - burns a very bright white, so it is used to add white sparks or improve the overall brilliance of a firework., Oxygen - O/Oxidizers - usually nitrates, chlorates, or perchlorates., Phosphorus - P - burns spontaneously in air and is also responsible for some glow-in-the-dark effects. It may be a component of a firework’s fuel., Potassium - K - helps to oxidize firework mixtures. Potassium nitrate, potassium chlorate, and potassium perchlorate are all important oxidizers., Sodium - Na - imparts a gold or yellow color to fireworks, however, the color may be so bright that it masks less intense colors., Sulfur - S - a component of black powder. It is found in a firework’s propellant/fuel., Strontium - Sr - impart a red color to fireworks. Strontium compounds are also important for stabilizing fireworks mixtures., Titanium - Ti - can be burned as powder or flakes to produce silver sparks., Zinc - Zn - used to create smoke effects for fireworks and other pyrotechnic devices., Luminescence - the emission of light by a substance that has not been heated, Incandescence - the emission of light caused by high temperature,
