Common fireworks are paper or cardboard tubes containing combinations of gunpowder, flash powder, and propellants. Larger pyrotechnics use metal mortars and other containers, and some displays used compressed air for launching.

There are many chemicals also used to provide various levels of burning or exploding. Some create colored stars, bangs and reports, and crackling. Chemicals used include aluminum, ammonium percholorate calcium carbonate carbon, copper, iron, magnesium, phosphorous, potassium (many compunds) strontium, sulphur, titanium, and more.
