POTASSIUM NITRATE is a white to dirty gray crystalline solid. Water soluble.
Noncombustible, but accelerates the burning of combustible materials. If large
quantities are involved in fire or the combustible material is finely divided an
explosion may result. May explode under prolonged exposure to heat or fire. Toxic
oxides of nitrogen are produced in fires. Used in solid propellants, explosives,
fertilizers.

The most famous use of potassium nitrate is probably as the oxidizer in
blackpowder. From the most ancient times through the late 1880s, blackpowder
provided the explosive power for all the world's firearms. After that time, small arms
and large artillery increasingly began to depend on cordite, a smokeless powder.
Blackpowder remains in use today in black powder rocket motors, but also in
combination with other fuels like sugars in "rocket candy". It is also used in
fireworks such as smoke bombs.It is also added to cigarettes to maintain an even
burn of the tobaccoand is used to ensure complete combustion of paper cartridges
for cap and ball revolvers.It can also be heated to several hundred degrees to be
used for niter bluing, which is less durable than other forms of protective oxidation,
but allows for specific and often beautiful coloration of steel parts, such as screws,
pins, and other small parts of firearms.
