The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with gun powder market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.
Chinese alchemists developed gun powder in the ninth century. The chemical components that make up gun powder include sulphur, charcoal, and wallpaper. Black powder is another name for gun powder. A low-explosive material called gun powder is used as a propellant in firearms. The saltpetre serves as an oxidizer, while the sulphur and charcoal serve as fuels. Gun powder has been widely employed as a propellant in firearms, artillery, rockets, and pyrotechnics as well as a blasting powder in quarrying, mining, and road building due to its incendiary capabilities and the quantity of heat and gas volume that it generates. Due to its slower burning rate, which results in a slower pressure wave, gun powder can be separated from "high" explosives such dynamite and TNT.
The uses for gun powder are numerous. In order to perform the explosion in a controlled setting, it is employed in mining. In conjunction with other chemicals, in fireworks to provide vibrant, explosive sights, and in the entertainment sector to supply special effects for films, television shows, and stage productions. The gun powder market is primarily driven by the aforementioned causes. In addition to this, gun powder has a long history of employment in the military, including as a propellant in grenades, artillery, and firearms.
COVID-19 Impact: pandemic decreased the market demand
Global economies have been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Ammunition, component, and assembly line manufacturing have all been impacted globally. Despite the critical need of producing gun powder, supply chain issueswere temporarily halted production.

Latest Trends
"Improved compound formulas to fuel market growth"
The speed at which it burns and the number of cases it produces determine how effective gunpowder is. When there is an explosion, all of the gunpowder changes from a solid state to a gaseous state as a result of the ingredients coming together in new ways. When enough heat is delivered to it to cause the decomposition of the tiniest particle, additional heat is produced as a result, and the process is repeated until the entire thing has been devoured. The substances should consequently be transformed into gas as completely as possible, and into the gaseous conditions that release the most caloric energy, for the best powder. However, in real use, it is discovered that great burning or explosive quickness
