The following information is about Black Powder.
Black Powder Defined
A deflagrating or low explosive compound, consisting of a mixture of an alkali nitrate, usually potassium or sodium nitrate, mixed with charcoal and sulfur, which is mostly pressed, granulated and classified into definite grain fractions. It is easily ignited, friction sensitive, and produces dense smoke. Formerly used as a propellant before the advent of so-called smokeless powder; few remaining military uses, such as igniters, in fuzes to give short delay, in blank ammunition and as spotting charges. It deflagrates faster than it detonates; and is thus classified as a low explosive. The standard composition is: 75% potassium nitrate, 10% sulfur and 15% charcoal. There are also graded compositions containing 74, 70, 68 or 64% potassium nitrate. Corresponding compositions based on sodium nitrate are known as B-Black Powder.
