FAQ On Gun Powder

• What is in gun powder

“Gunpowder,” as it came to be known, is a mixture of saltpeter (potassium nitrate), sulfur, and charcoal. Together, these materials will burn rapidly and explode as a propellant. Chinese monks discovered the technology in the 9th century CE, during their quest for a life-extending elixir.

• What is modern gunpowder made of?

The current modern ratio of 75% nitrate,15% charcoal, 10% sulfur was settled upon sometime in the mid 18th century in England. But different countries had their own formulas, which may partially account for their military success or failure.

• What was the main purpose of gun powder?

Gunpowder was first use in warfare as an incendiary, or fire-producing, compound. Small packages of gunpowder wrapped in paper or bamboo were attached to arrows and lit with a fuse. Bombs of gunpowder mixed with scrap iron would be launched with catapults.

• Does water ruin gunpowder?

Worse, black powder can be permanently ruined by water. This is because it’s a mixture of saltpeter (potassium nitrate, KNO3), sulfur, and charcoal, and saltpeter is water-soluble. If you get it wet enough, the saltpeter can be completely washed out of the mixture.
