Pyrotechnic Devices
Pyrotechnic devices are objects that create visual and auditory effects through the controlled combustion of explosive materials. Common examples include fireworks, flares, and smoke bombs. They work by igniting a chemical mixture that produces light, sound, or smoke, often used for entertainment (like fireworks displays), signaling, or special effects in films. Safety regulations are crucial in their use because, despite their spectacular nature, they can be hazardous if not handled properly. Understanding their function and the associated risks is essential for both enjoyment and safety.
