Description

Gunpowder, also commonly known as black powder to distinguish it from modern smokeless powder, is the earliest known chemical explosive. It consists of a mixture of sulfur, carbon, and potassium nitrate (saltpeter). The sulfur and carbon act as fuels while the saltpeter is an oxidizer. Gunpowder has been widely used as a propellant in firearms, artillery, rocketry, and pyrotechnics, including use as a blasting agent for explosives in quarrying, mining, building pipelines, tunnels, and roads.

बारूद एक विस्फोटक रासायनिक मिश्रण है। इसे गन पाउडर (gunpowder) या अपने काले रंग के कारण काला पाउडर भी कहते हैं। बारूद गंधक, कोयला एवं शोरा का मिश्रण होता है और यह मानव इतिहास का सर्वप्रथम निर्मित विस्फोटक था। बारूद का प्रयोग पटाखों एवं नोदक (प्रोपेलन्ट) के रूप में अग्निशस्त्रों (firearms) में किया जाता है। बारूद चिंगारी पाकर तेजी से जलता है जिससे भारी मात्रा में गैस एवं गरम ठोस पैदा होता है।
