Larger grain black powder, such a fG or ffG. Black powder substitutes, such as Pyrodex are not intended for use in propelling fireworks. Pyrodex R could be tried- rmember it is measured not by weight, but by volume.
Black Powder.
They are flash or black powder compact with cardboard and a fuse
Black powder, flash powder, KP, H3, Armstrong's mix, willow, and their are others that just have generic names such as blue star #1.
Black powder, in fact is the term used in fireworks. Otherwise, it may be referred to as gunpowder although black powder has now become a more acceptable term because it is no longer used in guns(except for the antique ones). Guns now utilize smokeless powders.
Their is a small time fuse or a spolette (black powder filled tube) inside that ignites when the black powder lift charge goes off and sends the shell into the air. The time fuse or spolette is timed to burn until the shell reaches it's apex which differs for each size shell. When it gets to the top it passes the fire to a burst charge which is usually black powder coated rice hull but for smaller shells they sometimes use a stronger break such as KP, H3 or flash powder.

The discovery of black powder was an accident but the discovery of fireworks were definatly intentional.

Here are some ingredients in fireworks... Charcoal, gun powder (black powder) ( for explosion), alumunuim powder ( for flash), potassium nitrate (saltpeter) (for smoke).
Potassium nitrate is used to make fireworks and black powder (which is used in gun powder).
Impossible to say, but it definitely happened in China not long after they perfected the formula for black powder. The Chinese first used black powder to make various types of fireworks, including firecrackers. But eventually adapted black powder based fireworks technology to warfare by scaling upward.
Black powder, or a black powder substitute such as Pyrodex. Smokeless powder (modern gun powder) should not be used in a traditional muzzle loading firearm.
Black powder and smokeless powder differ significantly in power. Smokeless powder is more powerful, providing higher velocities and energy compared to black powder. Smokeless powder's cleaner burn and increased efficiency make it the standard propellant for modern firearms, offering better performance and reduced fouling.
Yes. It is a valid substitute for black powder.
