Sulfur, potassium nitrate and charcoal are the main ingredients of gunpowder that acts as an explosive substance. Traditionally, it was used in fireworks and applied like a spotlight firearms. However, through innovation of the powder, it has become another form weapon that is better known and more widely used. Since the method of original production emits large amounts of soot when it explodes, a powder containing nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin, which is smoke free, took the place of the first.

This innovation is a starting point for China in the ninth century. It was adapted by the Chinese as firearms as it was considered an explosive, ideal for weapons because it produced a small explosive, yet strong enough to propel the ball while not damaging the gun or rifle. In the 13th century, guns were produced by Europe and the Middle East after both are obtained powder.

An important step in innovation is the powder cannon be the Corning "of gunpowder by the Europeans. When mixed with liquid and granular form is proved to have better consistency. They are separated into parts unusable or reduce to dust on landfill.

In addition, if the technique Corning was a key step in improving its functionality, it still poses a problem, that is, it emits thick clouds smoke when ignited, causing visibility problems in the field of battle. In 1846 a Swiss chemist invented smokeless powder first, called gun cotton. The disadvantage of this powder is that it is dangerous due to its unstable state.

The real success of this innovation, namely the powder B, was presented by Old Pal. It was followed closely by Ballistite Alfred Nobel. This creation is more often applied specifically for firearms, since any reference to gunpowder is associated with smokeless variety.
