Sugar is SUCH a fascinating substance...I wonder where it falls on the resistance scale...or maybe it even makes electricity, who knows? Who would even bother to test it for such properties?

You can make beer from sugar so, it is a wonderful substance.  I don't make beer anymore...but when I did, it was good.

LOL! I don't think you ca ferment anything without sugar - but I might be wrong about that. Of course, sugar comes in all kinds of forms...

I should probably add that sugar, itself, is actually flammable. QUITE flammable. And sugar dust is explosive, which makes it interesting with a CAPE - i.e. SUPER interesting.

SUGAR, ON ITS OWN, IS FLAMMABLE

I should have put THAT in bold, in the very first post - if someone wants to add it to the topic title...

Yes, a lot of model rocket guys make their own engines using a sugar formula for a decent solid fuel rocket motor.

A factoid I did not have - and muy interesting, to boot! Thanks!

And now I'm wondering....if pulverized dry syrup would burn...another reason to plasticize it, I reckon.
