Where it fits
The quiet heroes: the binders that hold every star together. Two systems, water-bound and solvent-bound, cover every forming method in the book.
What this one does
Binder math
Binders go in on top of a composition in low single digits, typically 2 to 5 percent added. Enough binds the star; more slows the burn and dulls the colour. Cut and pressed stars favour water binding, rolled stars take either.
Storage and compatibility
Compatibility family: Organics / binders
OK May share a storage area with normal precautions
! Segregate: separate shelving, distance, sealed packaging
X Never store together. Chemical or class incompatibility
The golden rule
Oxidizers and fuels belong in separate storage areas, ideally separate buildings or magazines, never in the mixing room itself. Your local regulations set the required separation. When in doubt: more distance and more walls. If two materials could form a composition on the shelf, they should never share one.
