Don’t Pour Gunpowder On A Hot Stove


what’s up guys welcome back to the king

what’s up guys welcome back to the king of random labs where I’ve got a little

of random labs where I’ve got a little

of random labs where I’ve got a little experiment cooking up for a today

experiment cooking up for a today

experiment cooking up for a today now the inspiration for this experiment

now the inspiration for this experiment

now the inspiration for this experiment today goes back to the video where we

today goes back to the video where we

today goes back to the video where we made the pull-tab smoke grenade you

made the pull-tab smoke grenade you

made the pull-tab smoke grenade you might remember I cooked up a huge batch

might remember I cooked up a huge batch

might remember I cooked up a huge batch of this rocket fuel to the point where

of this rocket fuel to the point where

of this rocket fuel to the point where it was spilling over the edges and

it was spilling over the edges and

it was spilling over the edges and almost making contact with the burner

almost making contact with the burner

almost making contact with the burner itself that made me a little bit nervous

itself that made me a little bit nervous

itself that made me a little bit nervous because there was a chance the whole

because there was a chance the whole

because there was a chance the whole thing could go up in my face at once so

thing could go up in my face at once so

thing could go up in my face at once so the purpose of this experiment is to

the purpose of this experiment is to

the purpose of this experiment is to find out just that how much heat can

find out just that how much heat can

find out just that how much heat can this mixture take before it will

this mixture take before it will

this mixture take before it will spontaneously burst into flames oh and

spontaneously burst into flames oh and

spontaneously burst into flames oh and we’re going to test gunpowder too now if

we’re going to test gunpowder too now if

we’re going to test gunpowder too now if you ever stop to read the labels of any

you ever stop to read the labels of any

you ever stop to read the labels of any pyrotechnic composition including

pyrotechnic composition including

pyrotechnic composition including fireworks you’ll probably see it asks

fireworks you’ll probably see it asks

fireworks you’ll probably see it asks you to store it in a cool dry place away

you to store it in a cool dry place away

you to store it in a cool dry place away from any flames heat or sparks but the

from any flames heat or sparks but the

from any flames heat or sparks but the question really is how hot is too hot I

question really is how hot is too hot I

question really is how hot is too hot I mean say you have this stuff sitting in

mean say you have this stuff sitting in

mean say you have this stuff sitting in your garage in the middle of summer and

your garage in the middle of summer and

your garage in the middle of summer and gets incredibly hot in there at what

gets incredibly hot in there at what

gets incredibly hot in there at what temperature can we reasonably expect

temperature can we reasonably expect

temperature can we reasonably expect this stuff will go off not really sure

this stuff will go off not really sure

this stuff will go off not really sure so let’s find out and the other question

so let’s find out and the other question

so let’s find out and the other question in my mind is what exactly happens to

in my mind is what exactly happens to

in my mind is what exactly happens to gunpowder when you put on a stove does

gunpowder when you put on a stove does

gunpowder when you put on a stove does it melt together does it go off in

it melt together does it go off in

it melt together does it go off in flames or to sit there and do nothing

flames or to sit there and do nothing

flames or to sit there and do nothing let’s get cooking and find out so here’s

let’s get cooking and find out so here’s

let’s get cooking and find out so here’s what we’re working with today I’ve got a

what we’re working with today I’ve got a

what we’re working with today I’ve got a 20 gram mix of our rocket fuel because

20 gram mix of our rocket fuel because

20 gram mix of our rocket fuel because when this goes off it’s going to

when this goes off it’s going to

when this goes off it’s going to generate a lot of smoke and I want to

generate a lot of smoke and I want to

generate a lot of smoke and I want to limit it to 20 gram batch we’ve also got

limit it to 20 gram batch we’ve also got

limit it to 20 gram batch we’ve also got some pyro decks muzzleloading propellant

some pyro decks muzzleloading propellant

some pyro decks muzzleloading propellant as well as some green dot smokeless

as well as some green dot smokeless

as well as some green dot smokeless gunpowder for reloading cartridges let’s

gunpowder for reloading cartridges let’s

gunpowder for reloading cartridges let’s start off with the rocket fuel first

start off with the rocket fuel first

start off with the rocket fuel first we’ll throw this white powder in a pan

we’ll throw this white powder in a pan

we’ll throw this white powder in a pan heat it up until it caramelizes it and

heat it up until it caramelizes it and

heat it up until it caramelizes it and keep cooking it until it burns to a

keep cooking it until it burns to a

keep cooking it until it burns to a crisp I’ve also got an infrared

crisp I’ve also got an infrared

crisp I’ve also got an infrared thermometer so we can keep track of the

thermometer so we can keep track of the

thermometer so we can keep track of the temperature as well as an IR camera so

temperature as well as an IR camera so

temperature as well as an IR camera so we can actually see the heat changes

we can actually see the heat changes

we can actually see the heat changes taking place now this is going to take

taking place now this is going to take

taking place now this is going to take just a minute for this to start to warm

just a minute for this to start to warm

just a minute for this to start to warm up if I use a spatula we can help

up if I use a spatula we can help

up if I use a spatula we can help disperse the heat a little more evenly

disperse the heat a little more evenly

disperse the heat a little more evenly what’s interesting is this starts off as

what’s interesting is this starts off as

what’s interesting is this starts off as a white powder but the sugar begins to

a white powder but the sugar begins to

a white powder but the sugar begins to caramelize and turns into a syrup and

caramelize and turns into a syrup and

caramelize and turns into a syrup and absorbs the potassium nitrate into it

absorbs the potassium nitrate into it

absorbs the potassium nitrate into it and once it hits that consistency we

and once it hits that consistency we

and once it hits that consistency we just back away slowly and let it cook

just back away slowly and let it cook

just back away slowly and let it cook electricity’s buzzing bring out our

electricity’s buzzing bring out our

electricity’s buzzing bring out our temperature gauge here we’re starting

temperature gauge here we’re starting

temperature gauge here we’re starting off at about 76 degrees Fahrenheit

off at about 76 degrees Fahrenheit

off at about 76 degrees Fahrenheit that’s about room temperature right now

that’s about room temperature right now

that’s about room temperature right now if we go over the burner showing about

if we go over the burner showing about

if we go over the burner showing about 74 as well so the heat is just coming

74 as well so the heat is just coming

74 as well so the heat is just coming under that all right so it’s been about

under that all right so it’s been about

under that all right so it’s been about 45 seconds we’re up to 85 degrees

45 seconds we’re up to 85 degrees

45 seconds we’re up to 85 degrees Fahrenheit the burner is now at 132 so

Fahrenheit the burner is now at 132 so

Fahrenheit the burner is now at 132 so we’re definitely on the right

we’re definitely on the right

we’re definitely on the right looking good infrared cameras rolling at

looking good infrared cameras rolling at

looking good infrared cameras rolling at this point we just buckle down and watch

this point we just buckle down and watch

this point we just buckle down and watch [Music]

[Music]

[Music] this isn’t usually about the point where

this isn’t usually about the point where

this isn’t usually about the point where I start getting nervous because when I

I start getting nervous because when I

I start getting nervous because when I see the stuff burning it makes me feel

see the stuff burning it makes me feel

see the stuff burning it makes me feel like it is going to burst into flames

like it is going to burst into flames

like it is going to burst into flames all right we’re up to 350 now there’s

all right we’re up to 350 now there’s

all right we’re up to 350 now there’s quite a bit of smoke coming off of this

quite a bit of smoke coming off of this

quite a bit of smoke coming off of this right now a lot of little black spots

right now a lot of little black spots

right now a lot of little black spots where you can see everything’s been

where you can see everything’s been

where you can see everything’s been charred and it almost looks like this

charred and it almost looks like this

charred and it almost looks like this composition is cooking and drying out

composition is cooking and drying out

composition is cooking and drying out the bubbling is starting to reduce now

the bubbling is starting to reduce now

the bubbling is starting to reduce now the burner itself is over 500 degrees so

the burner itself is over 500 degrees so

the burner itself is over 500 degrees so it shows there is still quite a bit of

it shows there is still quite a bit of

it shows there is still quite a bit of heat that can go into that pot so I

heat that can go into that pot so I

heat that can go into that pot so I think we still have a chance of getting

think we still have a chance of getting

think we still have a chance of getting this to go off here well we’re up to 400

this to go off here well we’re up to 400

this to go off here well we’re up to 400 now so the temperature is starting to

now so the temperature is starting to

now so the temperature is starting to rise you can see all the bubbling

rise you can see all the bubbling

rise you can see all the bubbling stopped it’s not gooey and bubbly like

stopped it’s not gooey and bubbly like

stopped it’s not gooey and bubbly like it was before it’s pretty much flattened

oatmeal cookie now I’ve never played

oatmeal cookie now I’ve never played with rocket fuel that was hot before

with rocket fuel that was hot before

with rocket fuel that was hot before there’s a chance that this could combust

there’s a chance that this could combust

there’s a chance that this could combust very vigorously if it starts from the

very vigorously if it starts from the

very vigorously if it starts from the bottom it could actually explode out of

bottom it could actually explode out of

the pot and spew rocket fuel all over my

the pot and spew rocket fuel all over my workshop might be a good time to put on

there stagnating I’m starting to wonder if it’s even gonna go off at all of

if it’s even gonna go off at all of

if it’s even gonna go off at all of course if it doesn’t that would be the

course if it doesn’t that would be the

course if it doesn’t that would be the best thing that could happen to us

best thing that could happen to us

best thing that could happen to us because we don’t want this stuff going

because we don’t want this stuff going

because we don’t want this stuff going off while we’re cooking it do it so you

off while we’re cooking it do it so you

off while we’re cooking it do it so you know what I’m gonna do is grab a fork

know what I’m gonna do is grab a fork

know what I’m gonna do is grab a fork and let’s poke this thing and flip it

and let’s poke this thing and flip it

and let’s poke this thing and flip it over like a pancake and cook both sides

over like a pancake and cook both sides

over like a pancake and cook both sides oh wow very light and crispy almost like

oh wow very light and crispy almost like

oh wow very light and crispy almost like a meringue so interesting update guys

a meringue so interesting update guys

a meringue so interesting update guys it’s been about 15 minutes we’ve been

it’s been about 15 minutes we’ve been

it’s been about 15 minutes we’ve been cooking this thing on high heat we’ve

cooking this thing on high heat we’ve

cooking this thing on high heat we’ve got up to 430 degrees Fahrenheit and

got up to 430 degrees Fahrenheit and

got up to 430 degrees Fahrenheit and instead of combusting into giant ball of

instead of combusting into giant ball of

instead of combusting into giant ball of flames

flames

flames instead it’s burnt itself into a black

instead it’s burnt itself into a black

instead it’s burnt itself into a black ash at this point I’m not even sure if

ash at this point I’m not even sure if

ash at this point I’m not even sure if it’s still clown wool so why don’t we

it’s still clown wool so why don’t we

it’s still clown wool so why don’t we take a spoonful of it and apply it

take a spoonful of it and apply it

take a spoonful of it and apply it directly to the burner itself

directly to the burner itself

directly to the burner itself all right here we go

all right here we go

all right here we go [Music]

[Music]

[Music] oh good go off a little bit interesting

oh good go off a little bit interesting

oh good go off a little bit interesting okay so Wow and come look at the residue

okay so Wow and come look at the residue

okay so Wow and come look at the residue here it’s got kind of some sticky gummy

here it’s got kind of some sticky gummy

here it’s got kind of some sticky gummy syrupy residue I’ll look up in the

syrupy residue I’ll look up in the

syrupy residue I’ll look up in the ceiling you can actually see all the

ceiling you can actually see all the

ceiling you can actually see all the smoke clouds lingering in the ceiling

smoke clouds lingering in the ceiling

smoke clouds lingering in the ceiling here now we got this mixture up to 400

here now we got this mixture up to 400

here now we got this mixture up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and it would not go

degrees Fahrenheit and it would not go

degrees Fahrenheit and it would not go off but when we applied it directly to

off but when we applied it directly to

off but when we applied it directly to the burner it did go off relatively

the burner it did go off relatively

the burner it did go off relatively quickly the difference is the burner is

quickly the difference is the burner is

quickly the difference is the burner is 740 degrees Fahrenheit while the pot

740 degrees Fahrenheit while the pot

740 degrees Fahrenheit while the pot itself was just 400 the auto ignition

itself was just 400 the auto ignition

itself was just 400 the auto ignition temperature must be somewhere in between

temperature must be somewhere in between

temperature must be somewhere in between that I guess the lesson learned from

that I guess the lesson learned from

that I guess the lesson learned from this is if you’re cooking this stuff

this is if you’re cooking this stuff

this is if you’re cooking this stuff make sure it doesn’t fall on the burner

make sure it doesn’t fall on the burner

make sure it doesn’t fall on the burner alright so just for fun let’s go ahead

alright so just for fun let’s go ahead

alright so just for fun let’s go ahead and pour the rest

and pour the rest

and pour the rest [Applause]

[Applause]

[Applause] [Music]

sweet look at the smoke rollin feeling

sweet look at the smoke rollin feeling interesting update guys the syrupy stuff

interesting update guys the syrupy stuff

interesting update guys the syrupy stuff stuck to the burner isn’t a sugar

stuck to the burner isn’t a sugar

stuck to the burner isn’t a sugar composition at all it’s actually molten

composition at all it’s actually molten

composition at all it’s actually molten potassium nitrate we can tell that

potassium nitrate we can tell that

potassium nitrate we can tell that because we use something like a paper

because we use something like a paper

because we use something like a paper towel to wipe it up it instantly begins

towel to wipe it up it instantly begins

towel to wipe it up it instantly begins to combust

alright guys we got our workstation

alright guys we got our workstation cleaned up and we did learn a few things

cleaned up and we did learn a few things

cleaned up and we did learn a few things but I’m still not entirely satisfied I

but I’m still not entirely satisfied I

but I’m still not entirely satisfied I want to see the stuff burst into flames

want to see the stuff burst into flames

want to see the stuff burst into flames as the temperature still rising so this

as the temperature still rising so this

as the temperature still rising so this time I’m gonna make a new batch a little

time I’m gonna make a new batch a little

time I’m gonna make a new batch a little bit smaller and this time I’m going to

bit smaller and this time I’m going to

bit smaller and this time I’m going to build it directly on the burner itself

it’s amazing that haven’t gone off yet

it’s amazing that haven’t gone off yet 820 degrees Fahrenheit I didn’t even

820 degrees Fahrenheit I didn’t even

820 degrees Fahrenheit I didn’t even know the burner to get that hot

know the burner to get that hot

know the burner to get that hot [Music]

[Music]

[Music] there goes oh wow that was amazing that

there goes oh wow that was amazing that

there goes oh wow that was amazing that was amazing we got up to 835 degrees

was amazing we got up to 835 degrees

was amazing we got up to 835 degrees Fahrenheit and then it spontaneously

Fahrenheit and then it spontaneously

Fahrenheit and then it spontaneously combusted that went off really really

combusted that went off really really

combusted that went off really really fast it’s like spitting all these little

fast it’s like spitting all these little

fast it’s like spitting all these little fire balls in every different direction

fire balls in every different direction

fire balls in every different direction and that went off so fast I really

and that went off so fast I really

and that went off so fast I really wasn’t expecting it by this point I was

wasn’t expecting it by this point I was

wasn’t expecting it by this point I was almost giving up on it actually

almost giving up on it actually

almost giving up on it actually happening and then boom there goes I

have to admit that did take me a little

have to admit that did take me a little bit off guard lots of fun lots of fire

bit off guard lots of fun lots of fire

bit off guard lots of fun lots of fire balls lots of smoke that’s really cool

balls lots of smoke that’s really cool

balls lots of smoke that’s really cool that was amazing we got up to 835

that was amazing we got up to 835

that was amazing we got up to 835 degrees Fahrenheit and then it

degrees Fahrenheit and then it

degrees Fahrenheit and then it spontaneously combusted that went off

spontaneously combusted that went off

spontaneously combusted that went off really really fast and look at the black

really really fast and look at the black

really really fast and look at the black ash residue if you look closely you can

ash residue if you look closely you can

ash residue if you look closely you can still see the coals are glowing red down

still see the coals are glowing red down

still see the coals are glowing red down there look at that if I blow on it that

there look at that if I blow on it that

there look at that if I blow on it that is some of the glowing carbon left over

is some of the glowing carbon left over

is some of the glowing carbon left over from that sugar now that’s up to

from that sugar now that’s up to

from that sugar now that’s up to temperature let’s put on a little bit

temperature let’s put on a little bit

temperature let’s put on a little bit more and see if we have the same

more and see if we have the same

more and see if we have the same reaction

[Music]

[Music] interesting so I was very encouraging

interesting so I was very encouraging

interesting so I was very encouraging guys we actually had to max out this

guys we actually had to max out this

guys we actually had to max out this burner get up to eight hundred and

burner get up to eight hundred and

burner get up to eight hundred and thirty degrees Fahrenheit before the

thirty degrees Fahrenheit before the

thirty degrees Fahrenheit before the composition actually went off so that

composition actually went off so that

composition actually went off so that makes me a lot more confidence during

makes me a lot more confidence during

makes me a lot more confidence during this thing up because we really

this thing up because we really

this thing up because we really shouldn’t be going over about 200-250 at

shouldn’t be going over about 200-250 at

shouldn’t be going over about 200-250 at most there’s a really nice wide range of

most there’s a really nice wide range of

most there’s a really nice wide range of buffer there when cooking up our rocket

buffer there when cooking up our rocket

buffer there when cooking up our rocket fuel so now it makes me wonder how would

fuel so now it makes me wonder how would

fuel so now it makes me wonder how would gunpowder react let’s clean up this

gunpowder react let’s clean up this

gunpowder react let’s clean up this workbench and try that next

workbench and try that next

workbench and try that next for our second experiment here we’re

for our second experiment here we’re

for our second experiment here we’re going to try pyro decks I’ve got my

going to try pyro decks I’ve got my

going to try pyro decks I’ve got my burner back down to 420 degrees

burner back down to 420 degrees

burner back down to 420 degrees Fahrenheit right now I’m not sure if

Fahrenheit right now I’m not sure if

Fahrenheit right now I’m not sure if that’s too hot or not I’m just going to

that’s too hot or not I’m just going to

that’s too hot or not I’m just going to take a small spoonful of this sprinkle a

take a small spoonful of this sprinkle a

take a small spoonful of this sprinkle a few grains in the center see what

few grains in the center see what

few grains in the center see what happens it’s already starting to smoke a

happens it’s already starting to smoke a

happens it’s already starting to smoke a little bit 590 Fahrenheit we’re at 660

little bit 590 Fahrenheit we’re at 660

little bit 590 Fahrenheit we’re at 660 Fahrenheit and climbing that’s smoking

Fahrenheit and climbing that’s smoking

Fahrenheit and climbing that’s smoking pretty good though isn’t it feel like

pretty good though isn’t it feel like

pretty good though isn’t it feel like that’s got to go up in an instant any

that’s got to go up in an instant any

that’s got to go up in an instant any any minute now 670 so this is the

any minute now 670 so this is the

any minute now 670 so this is the pyrotechnics we’ve maxed out at about

pyrotechnics we’ve maxed out at about

pyrotechnics we’ve maxed out at about 900 degrees Fahrenheit which is way

900 degrees Fahrenheit which is way

900 degrees Fahrenheit which is way higher than this thermometer can go and

higher than this thermometer can go and

higher than this thermometer can go and apparently is as high as this can go now

apparently is as high as this can go now

apparently is as high as this can go now in looking at the powder it’s no longer

in looking at the powder it’s no longer

in looking at the powder it’s no longer a powder it’s mushed down and turned

a powder it’s mushed down and turned

a powder it’s mushed down and turned into some kind of a sludge a black

into some kind of a sludge a black

into some kind of a sludge a black sludge I don’t know if it’s still

sludge I don’t know if it’s still

sludge I don’t know if it’s still flammable or not

flammable or not

flammable or not so to kill this stuff off I’m going to

so to kill this stuff off I’m going to

so to kill this stuff off I’m going to take a flame from a barbecue matter and

take a flame from a barbecue matter and

take a flame from a barbecue matter and see if it was still ignite here we go

see if it was still ignite here we go

see if it was still ignite here we go moment of truth

moment of truth

moment of truth [Music]

[Music]

[Music] [Applause]

[Applause]

[Applause] yep still works still works

yep still works still works

yep still works still works apparently our pyro decks mix will not

apparently our pyro decks mix will not

apparently our pyro decks mix will not light off even at 800 to 850 degrees

light off even at 800 to 850 degrees

light off even at 800 to 850 degrees Fahrenheit we had to go to the flame to

Fahrenheit we had to go to the flame to

Fahrenheit we had to go to the flame to get that to work

get that to work

get that to work next up smokeless gunpowder same routine

next up smokeless gunpowder same routine

next up smokeless gunpowder same routine as before we’re starting the burner at

as before we’re starting the burner at

as before we’re starting the burner at 580 degrees Fahrenheit and working our

580 degrees Fahrenheit and working our

580 degrees Fahrenheit and working our way up so we’re actually down to about

way up so we’re actually down to about

way up so we’re actually down to about 530 Fahrenheit here let’s see how this

530 Fahrenheit here let’s see how this

530 Fahrenheit here let’s see how this works out a bit of powder in the middle

works out a bit of powder in the middle

works out a bit of powder in the middle and there it goes

and there it goes

and there it goes wow that was instant and notice there is

wow that was instant and notice there is

wow that was instant and notice there is no smoke that is smokeless that’s

no smoke that is smokeless that’s

no smoke that is smokeless that’s actually really cool

actually really cool

actually really cool so smokeless gunpowder apparently will

so smokeless gunpowder apparently will

so smokeless gunpowder apparently will take off a lot faster boom and look no

take off a lot faster boom and look no

take off a lot faster boom and look no smoke no smoke no residue

smoke no smoke no residue

smoke no smoke no residue it’s just churn and burn and I could do

it’s just churn and burn and I could do

it’s just churn and burn and I could do this all day long so just from this

this all day long so just from this

this all day long so just from this small experiment so far I’d say that

small experiment so far I’d say that

small experiment so far I’d say that smokeless gunpowder is a lot bigger fire

smokeless gunpowder is a lot bigger fire

smokeless gunpowder is a lot bigger fire hazard than any of the other

hazard than any of the other

hazard than any of the other compositions we’ve played with so far so

compositions we’ve played with so far so

compositions we’ve played with so far so I’ve let our burner cool down to 280

I’ve let our burner cool down to 280

I’ve let our burner cool down to 280 degrees Fahrenheit so we can add a small

degrees Fahrenheit so we can add a small

degrees Fahrenheit so we can add a small pile of smokeless gunpowder to the

pile of smokeless gunpowder to the

pile of smokeless gunpowder to the center of the burner and then bring up

center of the burner and then bring up

center of the burner and then bring up the temperature I want to find out

the temperature I want to find out

the temperature I want to find out exactly what temperature of this stuff

exactly what temperature of this stuff

exactly what temperature of this stuff goes off at alright let’s turn up the

goes off at alright let’s turn up the

goes off at alright let’s turn up the heat my guess is this is going to go off

heat my guess is this is going to go off

heat my guess is this is going to go off somewhere around 390 and 400 and here’s

somewhere around 390 and 400 and here’s

somewhere around 390 and 400 and here’s what we’re looking at we’re currently

what we’re looking at we’re currently

what we’re looking at we’re currently 280 degrees Fahrenheit and starting to

280 degrees Fahrenheit and starting to

280 degrees Fahrenheit and starting to climb 400 420 430 there goes 430 degrees

climb 400 420 430 there goes 430 degrees

climb 400 420 430 there goes 430 degrees Fahrenheit 430 degrees Fahrenheit that’s

Fahrenheit 430 degrees Fahrenheit that’s

Fahrenheit 430 degrees Fahrenheit that’s pretty cool

pretty cool

pretty cool case we’re back down to 410 Fahrenheit

case we’re back down to 410 Fahrenheit

case we’re back down to 410 Fahrenheit and the verdict is

it’ll still work there’s nothing there

it’ll still work there’s nothing there enough residual heat so I would say

enough residual heat so I would say

enough residual heat so I would say anywhere between about 390 Fahrenheit

anywhere between about 390 Fahrenheit

anywhere between about 390 Fahrenheit and about 430 is where the stuff is

and about 430 is where the stuff is

and about 430 is where the stuff is going to go off interesting let’s turn

going to go off interesting let’s turn

going to go off interesting let’s turn off the burner and talk about what we

off the burner and talk about what we

off the burner and talk about what we just learned here today we entered this

just learned here today we entered this

just learned here today we entered this experiment with a purpose to find out

spontaneous combustion in your garage

spontaneous combustion in your garage would be smokeless gunpowder
