Ferrocerium (also known in Europe as Auermetall) is a synthetic pyrophoric alloy of mischmetal (cerium, lanthanum, neodymium, other trace lanthanides and some iron – about 95% lanthanides and 5% iron) hardened by blending in oxides of iron and/or magnesium.

2016年11月30日 · Ferrocerium is often referred to as a fire steel, flint, magnesium fire-starter, or even "metal match". So, what is a ferro rod, and how does it work?

FERROCERIUM, a less reactive metal, can react exothermically with oxidizing acids to form noxious gases. Many metals of this group catalyze polymerization and other reactions, particularly when finely divided.

The meaning of FERROCERIUM is a crude iron alloy containing a high percentage of cerium and used for flints in cigarette lighters.

This is an Introduction to Ferrocerium. With some practice Ferrocerium can be a remarkably reliable fire starter. In this video I cover the basics of their ...

2024年12月21日 · Unlike natural flint used with steel for traditional firemaking, ferro rods do not require carbon steel or any form of actual flint rock to work. Their sparks come from striking the rod itself, which is made of a pyrophoric alloy known as ferrocerium.
