Smokeless powder is a type of propellant used in firearms and ammunition that produces very little smoke when ignited, which is a key advantage over traditional black powder. It is composed of nitrocellulose, often with the addition of other chemical substances to modify its properties and performance. The main types of smokeless powder are single-base, which contains primarily nitrocellulose, and double-base, which includes both nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin.
