That means that the different types of metals used in the stars each have a characteristic color. Here are some of the metals and specific compounds that are typically used in fireworks to produce different colors: Red: strontium (strontium carbonate, SrCO3), for intense reds and lithium (lithium carbonate, Li2CO3, or lithium chloride, LiCl) for medium reds. Orange: calcium (calcium chloride, CaCl2)
Click to Enlarge. Itâs Fireworks Night here in the UK tomorrow, which means fireworks (obviously), bonfires and sparklers. Weâve looked at fireworks in a previous post, so this time around itâs time to take a look at the chemicals that go into producing sparklers, and their various roles.In sparklers, there are three main components to the composition: a metal fuel, an oxidiser, and a binder.he temperature of the burning sparkler can easily reach between 1000-1600ËC, and the use of additional fuels can also have an effect on this. Regardless of your previous chemistry education, you probably came across the concept of oxidation and reduction reactions.
