The AFN articles ...  are available in the open section of the Pyro-Gear forum. There's no need to join up to see them.

Dextrine does work (4%) but I find in all of my tests it isn`t as effective as NC because it quietens the crackle somewhat.

Responding to a 10 year-old post? 35:35:30 BiO3/CuO/MgAl, primed properly. Works. Check your chems. Check your priming. Check your MgAl:star sizing. Crackle/DEs are really not difficult. Bind with NC or bind with phenolic resin like the Chicoms do. Simples.
