👉 A trigger fluid, also known as a pyrotechnic or initiating fluid, is a chemical substance designed to initiate a controlled explosion or reaction in various applications, such as fireworks, safety devices, and industrial processes. It is typically a volatile liquid or gas that reacts rapidly with an oxidizer or another reactive component, producing heat and pressure to trigger the main explosive reaction. The choice of trigger fluid is crucial as it must have a specific sensitivity and reaction rate to ensure the desired timing and intensity of the explosion, making it an essential component in safety systems and pyrotechnic devices.
