Re: Which chemicals for gunpowder
swil did a search after seeing your post and read some ingredients are saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal.
*just do a search on any search engine swil is sure there will be lots of info there*
*you could just buy blackpowder*

Re: Which chemicals for gunpowder
75% potassium nitrate (stump remover)
15% charcoal (BBQ coal)
10% Sulfur (flowers of sulfur)
Mix everything in a ballmill for some time and after that you have blackpowder.
