This is a test burn of potassium nitrate (KNO3) and Sucrose (C12H22O11) with Iron Oxides added (Fe2O3 + FeO(OH) + Fe(OH)3), all in powder form. No precise measurements were made, the ratio is roughly 60/35/5.

Comparing this to the pure KNSU burn, the Iron Oxides reduces the burn rate significantly.

Potassium nitrate is a strong oxidizer and reactant, and must be treated with respect!
