Question:

will aluminium powder combust with water?

long storyanyway the police came rounds to ma house and are saying that the aluminium powder i had for a thermite reaction would or could explode if exposed to wateris this trueif so under what conditions?

Answer:

the exterior that anybody your insulating components and the condenser itself relax upon might no longer be rigid sufficient or stiff sufficient to permit you to insulate it so as that there is not any vibration transferred to the help shape itselfThe majotity of the vibration is probably transferred to the help shape which then amplifies the concernthe sole way that i be conscious of of to resolve this type of subject is to the two stiffen the help shape, relocate the condenser to be closer a help wall, or construct a separate rigid help shape for the condenser which will unfold the condenser load over a much better area.
Yes, it is trueA lump of aluminum is not a fire hazard because it has so little surface areaHowever, when it is converted to dust, it is able to sustain a reaction, due to its much larger surface areaIts ignition temperature is high (1400 F), but once the reaction starts, it is very difficult to stop.
Do you mean what has highest R-factor per inch?
I don't have a problem with you posting this in the wrong sectionI DO have a problem with you not doing the research and homework yourselfTurn off the stereo, get off the computer, get off your lazy butt, and do your own homework.
