Lampblack [C]
Lampblack is obtained by the incomplete burning of pine wood and the
resulting very fine powder usually passes 350 mesh. The work with it is known
for its extreme dirtyness. Due to its fineness it easily spreads into every
mixture, even at small amounts. It might be used as a component of BP and the
force of the resulting powder is large. Small amounts of lampblack are included
in various compositions to enhance ignitability and effect. Lampblack is one of
the main components of flower pots and moreover contributes to the Senko
Hanabi effect. Some of the best and longest lasting (japanese quality)
golden streamer stars can be manufactured with it. Lampblack is not easily
damped and therefore it is advisable to add a small amount of alcohol (reduces
surface tension) to make moistening easier. The major defect is its high price.
Lampblack adheres to the mesh and consequently can´t be sieved on its own.
Nonetheless it passes the mesh well when accompanied by other materials used for
the same composition. In this case it spreads quite well into every mixture and
therefore small amounts of lampblack are employed in various star compositions
for ease of ignition
Do not breathe as it is a suspected carcinogen.
