cordite is a type of smokeless gunpowder. basically cellulose nitrate.
Cordite is no longer used as a propellant in modern firearms. It has been replaced by more efficient and less corrosive powders. However, some military museums and historical reenactments may still use cordite in order to preserve the historical accuracy of certain weapons.
