Inside the plastic cone at the head of the rocket might be a payload of small green stars, each about the size of a pea, based on a composition containing barium nitrate (36%), potassium chlorate (48%), shellac (13%) and dextrin (3%). 

Fused bottom colour compartment (green stars)... 

The amber stars then burn out, to be replaced by ejected green stars from the lower compartment, while the remains of the shell are still at a safe height with respect to the spectators on the ground. 

A red star might be based on potassium perchlorate, strontium carbonate and charcoal together with various binders and solvents to facilitate the pumping of solid stars. The composition for a green star... 

Table 8.1 Main emission bands/lines for a green star."...

The wavelengths in bold type indicate the strong emission lines of a green star. 

The chemistry that governs barium salts, as used in green stars, is somewhat analogous to that of the strontium salts employed in red stars since both elements are found in the same group of the periodic table. While the use of compounds such as strontium chloride, strontium chlorate or strontium perchlorate might be considered to be appropriate... 

In practice, both red and green star compositions are formulated to have a negative oxygen balance i.e. there is an oxygen deficiency) since the presence of a reducing atmosphere in the flame inhibits the oxidation of MCI to MO (where M is Sr or Ba), thus enhancing the colour purity of the flame. 

It has been used in pyrotechnic formulations, eg, in green stars Ba perchlorate 70.5, Mg powd 11.8, shellac 11.8 lycopodeum powd 5.9% (Ref 2). It is also a constituent of some expls (Ref 1), eg, in Leonard s smokeless powds...

The second German edition of Ruggieri s book (we have not seen the first) contains a Nachtrag or supplement which lists nine compositions,10 of which four contain Kali oxym. or potassium chlorate. These are (1) for red fire, strontium nitrate 24 parts, sulfur 3, fine charcoal 1, and potassium chlorate 5 (2) for green fire, barium carbonate 20 parts, sulfur 5, and potassium chlorate 8 parts (3) for green stars, barium carbonate 20 parts, sulfur 5, and potassium chlorate 9 parts and (4) for red lances, strontium carbonate 24 parts, sulfur 4, charcoal 1, and potassium chlorate 4 parts. Ruggieri says ...

Dark red represents PSCF values from 0.91 to 1.0, with shades of pink ranging down to 0.61 by tenths, and white represents from 0.41 to 0.60. Dark blue represents 0-0.10, with shades of blue ranging up to 0.40 by tenths. The green star in each map represents the sampling site. [Reproduced with permission from ACS]...
