Gun powder was invented by Chinese alchemists in the 9th
century. Gun powder is a mixture of chemical substances including sulfur,
charcoal, and wallpaper. Gun powder is also known as a black powder. Gun powder
is a low-explosive substance that is used as a propellant in firearms. The
sulfur and charcoal act as fuels while the saltpeter is an oxidizer. Owing to
its incendiary properties and the amount of heat and gas volume that it
generates, gun powder has been widely used as a propellant in firearms,
artillery, rockets, and fireworks and as a blasting powder in quarrying,
mining, and road building. Gun powder is distinguished from "high"
explosives—dynamite and TNT because of its lower burning speed that produces a
slower pressure wave, which is less likely to damage the barrel of a gun. Gun powder
is frequently used as an ingredient in fuses, both for fireworks and
explosives.
