matongflush Posted June 1, 2005 Author Share Posted June 1, 2005 I know, but my chem lab has only a little. I need 75ft for pyrotechnic purposes and for chemistry experiments. I am not sure, but does the arms and explosives act come into play here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member BFG Posted June 1, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted June 1, 2005 If you ship them by air, confirm require DGR cert. 75ft is long and if it caught fire, I think impossible to put out. Saw a rally race last year on tv where a rally car uses magnesium alloy for their rim. Due to an accident during the race, the rim caught fire. The whole car soon caught fire even though a fire truck was pouring water on the car. If I'm not wrong, you can't use water to put out a fire that is caused by magnesium.

robe Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 pure magnesium considered incendiary material and used for making incendiary bombs thus considered restricted materials. Probably only industrial users and schools are allowed to purchase and store them (schools are probably allowed only very small quantities). If you used it for pyrotechnics then you will need explosives permit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
