Paper can oxidize metals by allowing oxygen to come in contact with the metal surface, leading to rust or corrosion. Paper can also act as a fuel when burned, providing the necessary heat for combustion reactions with the metal. In the presence of moisture, paper can accelerate oxidation reactions with metals due to the cellulose fibers breaking down and releasing acids that can further corrode the metal.

How do sparklers burn?

Sparklers burn through a metal wire coated with a mixture of oxidizers, metal powders, and fuels. When ignited, the heat causes the oxidizers to release oxygen, which reacts with the metal powders, producing bright sparks and a sustained flame. The combustion process generates heat and light, creating the characteristic sparkling effect. The burning rate and intensity depend on the specific materials used in the sparkler's composition.
