A powder is a dry, bulk solid composed of a large number of very fine particles that may flow freely when shaken or tilted. Powders are a special sub-class of granular materials, although the terms powder and granular are sometimes used to distinguish separate classes of material. In particular, powders refer to those granular materials that have the finer grain sizes, and that therefore have a greater tendency to form clumps when flowing. Granulars refers to the coarser granular materials that do not tend to form clumps except when wet. Examples of powders would include ground coffee, powdered milk, cosmetic powders, gunpowder, powdered sugar, fine snow, household dust, volcanic ash, the top layer of the lunar regolith, copy machine toner, and many pharmaceuticals. Because of their importance to industry, medicine and earth science, powders have been studied in great detail by chemical engineers, mechanical engineers, chemists, physicists, geologists, and researchers in other disciplines. there are other types of powders such as nasal powders, powder for injection, oral powder, and extamporaneous powders applied to the skin

August 27, 2009
Sulphur, potassium nitrate and charcoal are the main ingredients in gunpowder which serves as an explosive substance. Traditionally, it was used in fireworks and applied as a projector in firearms.

Since the original method of production emits a large amount of soot when it explodes, a powder containing nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin which is smokeless has taken the place of the former.

July 31, 2009
The term anabolic describes any substance that promotes the building of muscle tissue or the accumulation of nitrogen in muscle protein.
