Al - aluminum is used to produce silver n white flames n sparks. it is a common component of sparklers.
Ba - barium is used to create green colors in fireworks n it also can help stabilize other volatile elements.
C - carbon is one of the main components of black powder, which is used as a propellant in firework. common forms include carbon black, sugar or starch.
Ca - calcium is used to deepen firework colors. calcium salts produce orange fireworks.
Cl - chlorine is an important component of many oxidizers in fireworks. several of the metal salts that produce colors contain chlorine.
Cu - copper compounds produce blue colors.
Fe - iron is used to produce sparks. the heat of the metal determines the color of the sparks.
K - potassium helps to oxidize firework mixtures. potassium nitrate, potassium chlorate n potassium perchlorate r all important oxidizers.
Li - lithium is a metal that is used to impart a red color to fireworks. lithium carbonate, in particular, is a common colorant.
Mg - magnesium burns a very bright white, so it is used to add white sparks or improve the overall brilliance of a firework.
Na - sodium imparts a gold or yellow color to fireworks, however, the color is often so bright that is frequently masks other, less intense colors.
O - oxygen. fireworks include oxidizers, which r substances that produce oxygen in order for burning to occur. the oxidizers r usually nitrates, chlorates, or perchlorates. sometimes the same substance is used to provide oxygen n color.
P - phosphorus burns spontaneously in air n is also responsible for some glow in the dark effects. it may be a component of a firework's fuel.
S - sulfur is a component of black powder n as such, it is found in a firework's propellant/fuel.
Sb - antimony is used to create firework glitter effects.
Sr - strontium salts impart a red color to fireworks. strontium compounds r also important for stabilizing fireworks mixtures.
Ti - titanium metal can be burned as powder or flakes to produce silver sparks.
Zn - zinc is a bluish white metal that is used to create smoke effects for fireworks n other pyrotechnic devices.
