A Crash Course in Oxidizers and How They Accelerate Fires

Oxidizers technically steal electrons from other atoms and molecules, but you can think of them as adding way more oxygen to a fire. Oxidizers are not in themselves flammable (except for class 5.2 oxidizers like organic peroxides) but in their presence substances that ordinarily wouldn’t burn become able to burn, and things that are already able to burn become able to burn MUCH faster.

Thanks.
A good demonstration.

Calcium hypochlorite is actually a very strong oxidizer, it just has a smaller “Oxygen capacity” which means fewer oxygen would be released (fewer electrons it will accept) for a given mass.

This man's not actually bald, the fireball he made in preparation for this video got a little spicy.
Really cool educational video

[@bobbyc2768]

well maybe before the fireball he wasn't bald, but he's bald now!

Thanks for the demonstration.

[@arturogabaldon6463]

So good explaining

[@MohammadAli-sg8bj]

Wow great demonstration

[@youtubeshypocrisy]

I work at a plant with nine 50ft oxidizer tanks. This terrifies me.

Where's your safety glasses?
