Generally, they (meaning pyrotechnics) use salts to create colors (and a variety at that, because they come in different colors). For example, strontium salts are used to create red, and blue is created using copper compounds.

∙ 15y agoThey use different ores to make different colors. * Bright GREENS are made with barium. * Deep REDS are a product of strontium. * BLUES come from copper. * YELLOWS require sodium. More colors can be created by mixing compounds: * ORANGE is produced by a mixture of strontium and sodium. * SILVERY WHITE by a mixture of titanium, zirconium and magnesium alloys. * LAVENDER is obtained using a copper and strontium mix. Special effects are created by yet other mineral products: * Iron filings (from the ore mineral hematite) and small particles of charcoal produce GOLDsparks. * Bright flashes are created by using fine ground aluminum powder. The use of larger particles, such as small flakes or granules, give a longer, shower-like effect. * Magnalium, a magnesium-aluminum alloy, produces a tiny series of silvery-white flashes. * Aluminum, antimony sulfide and perchlorate are other flash mixtures that are used HOPE THIS HELPS

∙ 15y agoThere's no food coloring involved. It's all chemistry (YES!) It's the electrons emitting visible light when they come down from an excited state (don't worry if you don't understand this). Just read below. When you put a metal in a fire, pretty colors turn up. You might know that copper bonded to other things burned in fire produces a nice blue/green color. That's one example of colors in fireworks. So materials: Metals/metal oxides/ionic solids
