Lets discuss this..
You wanna try?
from what I found ... water content impairs the quality of napalm, but in theory if we had a mass amount of water it should put it out right?
Which means water > napalm right?

yes water will put out napalm..
fosfor is much better then napalm.
fosfor is much better then napalm.
This kid putting all these inane topics in D&ST is getting annoying. 3 day ban?
Willy Pete also happens to be a chemical weapon and governed by the treaties relating to said weapons. As such it is not to be used on the battlefield, unlike napalm which is a conventional ordnancedelta4bravo*nl* wrote:

lol its a debate about water and Napalm people.. yes or no..Hurricane wrote:

No it will not.
Try it.
Also try curing Ebola with cough syrup while your at it.
*edit*
considering its banned for use by NATO, what do you think?

really? I'm thinking it would, doesn't it require oxygen to burn?ATG wrote:

As is napalm (it falls under the category of terror weapon along with the flamethrower and pretty much any other device or substance whose primary method of killing and destruction is fire). Just an FYI, but that particular treaty is one the US did not sign onto and as such still uses WP and napalm on the battlefield today. And as a rule of thumb, if it's a weapons treaty that does not involve nukes, chemical gas, or biological weapons, the US probably didn't sign onto it.JDFryer wrote:

not really because it "deoxyginates" the air rapidlySuperslim wrote:

Heres what napalm does to your skin
Its dropped out of a low flying aircraft, hits oxygen, bursts into flames.
molten hot jelled petroleum product lands on your skin. Rubbing it off spreads it. Its basically lava.
It burns until there is nothing left to burn.

So, you poured burning napalm on yourself, and are now asking us if water will help?
Napalm: Gasoline, soap, optional-aluminium (or aluminum, as many of you might say) or magnesium, for that hotter burn. Put some rust (yes oxidized iron) in there for a cool groovy effect! (Napalm/thermite!) Soap can be replaced with motor oil for a more liquid feel, or polystyrene (my personal favorite) for a sticky substance. Mmm, sticky..
Water will not put it out, the napalm will burn on water. For instance, if you pour a litre of gas in a bucket, set it on fire and pour water on it, you'll just get a big "wooosh" and no eyebrows (or face, for that matter). It will continue to burn, only smoke more. I do not endorse that anyone would try this.
The only effective way to put out napalm is to block oxygen flow to 100% for a prolonged time. It catches back on fire remarkably good, by itself even, if the blocking of oxygen has been only e.g 99%.
Junk Drawer, anyone?
Disclaimer: Since instructions for manufacturing of napalm can be found all over the Intewebs, I'm not passing along information on how to start your own rebel militia / terrorist organization. I feel that telling this is necessary for not getting Interpol on by ass (not the napalm-part, but the disclaimer). *checks office for bugs, continues being a conspiracy theorist*

I need around tree fiddy.
no i dont think so. Napalm burns at such a high temperature that it might dissolve the water molecules into hidrogen and oxigenmolecules, which will actually burn also giving the fire more power, just like if you light magnesium: dont you ever try to put it out with water, because it will make the fire more harsh.

Napalm is an accelerant for a Class 3 POL (Petroleum/Oil/Lubricant) fire, meaning to use regular water on it would be suicidal on surfaces that are flaming. The ignited napalm would simply float up and drift on the surface of any added water, making it more mobile. Class 3 foam with a medium expansion (for open air) or high expansion (enclosed space) is the recommended means of retarding the flames.
Wear the Class 3 (White) suits with respirator when fighting a napalm fire.
However, it is possible and useful to use water to disperse any non-ignited portions of the chemical, in order to de-concentrate it. Napalm will break down easily over time when exposed to air and not properly stored into its component parts.

Magnesium? Yea it sure is, it explodes when you put water on it while its burning. All it does is just piss it off.theit57 wrote:

What the heck is "fosfor"? Do you mean phosphor perhaps? Or Phosphorous?delta4bravo*nl* wrote:
