Description
Production and Purity
The production process of sulfur involves its recovery during gas manufacturing, where it is obtained in molten form. The molten sulfur is then cooled on a stainless steel belt, forming flakes that are subsequently ground into a fine powder. This product, often referred to as rubber makers, boasts exceptional purity levels, with a minimum of 99.5% purity guaranteed by the manufacturer.
Safety Considerations
While sulfur is invaluable in pyrotechnics, caution must be exercised when using it. Mixtures containing chlorates and sulfur are known to ignite spontaneously, making them extremely hazardous. Similarly, mixtures of perchlorates and sulfur, while less prone to spontaneous ignition, are still highly sensitive and require careful handling.
The Ubiquity of Sulfur
Sulfur is the tenth most common element by mass in the universe and the fifth most common on Earth. Its widespread availability and unique properties make it an indispensable component in various industries, including pyrotechnics.

Great quality sulfur, very pure, almost all of it passes a 100 mesh screen. Made some pretty hot black powder with it. Would recommend.
