Black match
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In pyrotechnics, black match is a type of crude fuse, constructed of cotton string fibers intimately coated with a dried black powder slurry.
When black match is confined in a paper tube, called quick match or piped match, the flame front propagates much more quickly, many feet per second.
