Triferric tetroxide

Triferric tetroxide gives rise to a highly violent detonation when it was heated with calcium silicide combined with aluminium and sodium nitrate. 

In the case of the alkali and alkaline earth metals, the sulphate is the sole product with copper, lead, bismuth and antimony, the product contains the metal, formed by reduction of the sulphate by unchanged sulphide. In cases where the sulphate is unstable at the temperature of reaction, as with zinc, cadmium, aluminium, tin, chromium, iron, cobalt and nickel, the oxide is the final product. The action may be catalytically accelerated by the addition of triferric tetroxide, Fe304.2...
