None. Dynamite is a different product altogether. Originally, it was nitroglycerin soaked into an absorbent powder (diatomeceous earth). Today's explosives use quite different formulas, including varied chemicals- but no gunpowder. BTW, dynamite "sticks" may be 1 inch by 6 inches, up to 5 inches by 30 inches, but most of the explosives that I use are in the form of flowable pellets, gels, or emulsions (similar to mayonnaise)

Is there any gun powder in dynamite?
No. Dynamite originally contained nitroglycerin, soaked into an absorbent material. Many commercial explosives are now based on ammonium nitrate, and nitrated propylene or ethylene glycol- but no gunpowder. By the way, the original gunpowder was a low explosive- it burns rapidly. Dynamite is a high explosive- it does not burn, but detonates at a speed MUCH greater- and releases much more energy. A standard 8 inch stick of dynamite releases about 1 million horsepower in 1/10,000th of a second
