Dynamite is an explosive used for blasting and demolition.
As invented by chemist Alfred Nobel in 1866, dynamite is the unstable compound nitroglycerin that is mixed with an inert filler to make it safer to transport and handle. Originally the filler was diatomite or sawdust, but various compounds are used, including nitrocellulose (generally anything that will soak up liquid).
The term "military dynamite" refers to a different compound (a combination of RDX, TNT, cornstarch and motor oil) that is much more stable than true dynamite.
