Summary: Some laboratory demonstrations of the chemical reactions exploited in Walter rocket engines.
Description: A demonstrator fills two syringes with, respectively, an "oxygen carrier" (hydrogen peroxide ?) and a fuel. Both liquids are then expelled through the same nozzle to produce a flame. The rest of the reel is filmed in Agfacolor: a small amount of "T-Stoff" (hydrogen peroxide) is pipetted into a beaker of "Z-Stoff" (permanganate solution) to cause an explosive reaction; some "T-Stoff" is poured into a beaker containing a solid catalyst which causes it to decompose violently; some "SV-Stoff" is added to a dish of fuel to create another sharp explosion.
