​

Potassium Chlorate
It is a chemical compound containing potassium, chlorine, and oxygen, with the formula KClO₃. In its pure form, it is a white crystalline substance. It is the most common chlorate used in industrial applications.

 

Dextrin
It is a class of low molecular weight polysaccharides. Dextrins are mixtures of D-glucose polymers (α-1,4). In industrial production, it is obtained through the acid hydrolysis of starch. Dextrins are water-soluble and appear as white to slightly yellowish powders.

 

Lithopone
Lithopone is an extremely fine white pigment produced from a mixture of barium sulfate (70%) and zinc sulfide (30%).

 

Magnalium
An aluminum-magnesium alloy intended for specific uses, designed to improve corrosion resistance. It may consist of up to 50% magnesium.

 

Barium Nitrate
Barium nitrate, with the chemical formula Ba(NO₃)₂, is a barium salt compound. It is a white solid powder at room temperature, soluble in water, as are most barium compounds.

 

Strontium Nitrate
It is an inorganic compound with the formula Sr(NO₃)₂. It provides a bright red color in various pyrotechnic products.

 

Potassium Nitrate
The chemical compound potassium nitrate, commercially known as saltpeter, has the formula KNO₃. It is an important source of nitrogen and potassium. Quarks offers two versions of potassium nitrate, including the GP Type, specially developed for the pyrotechnic sector, providing improved performance and cost efficiency in the final product.

 

Sodium Oxalate
Also called disodium oxalate, it is the sodium salt of oxalic acid. It is a chemical compound with the molecular formula Na₂C₂O₄. Sodium oxalate is a colorless, slightly hygroscopic powder.

 

Red Lead Oxide (Zarcão)
Also known as lead tetroxide (Pb₃O₄), it is an inorganic compound. It appears as a red-orange crystalline solid, insoluble in water.

 

Black Copper Oxide
Copper oxide is a trace element used in the livestock and agricultural sectors. It is also used as a raw material in the production of catalysts and pigments for ceramics, glass, and plastics.

 

Potassium Perchlorate
It is a chemical compound, a perchlorate salt with the formula KClO₄. A strong oxidizer, it is a colorless crystalline substance that melts at approximately 610 °C. It is one of the most common oxidizers used in ammunition, primers, explosives, propellants, and related applications.

 

Polyvinyl Chloride – PVC
PVC contains 57% chlorine (derived from sodium chloride – table salt) and 43% ethylene (derived from petroleum) by weight. Like all plastics, vinyl is produced through repeated polymerization processes that convert hydrocarbons found in materials such as petroleum into a single compound called a polymer. Vinyl is essentially formed from ethylene and chlorine.

 

Phenolic Resin
Phenol-formaldehyde resin is a synthetic thermosetting resin obtained from the reaction of phenols with formaldehyde. Phenolic resins are primarily used in the production of printed circuit boards. They are also well known for manufacturing molded products such as billiard balls, laboratory countertops, coatings, and adhesives.

 

Hydrophilic Fumed Silica – HL-200
It acts as an anti-caking and moisture control agent, assisting in the uniform dispersion of components. Its application ensures greater stability, reliable performance, and quality in pyrotechnic formulations.

 

Antimony Trisulfide
Sb₂S₃ occurs naturally as the crystalline mineral stibnite. Antimony trisulfide is manufactured for use in safety matches, military ammunition, explosives, and fireworks.
