Le fulminate de mercure est une poudre blanche, dense, insoluble dans l'eau, qui, sous l'action d'un choc ou d'une flamme, détone, à moins qu'il ne soit en masse extrêmement faible, auquel cas on observe une déflagration très vive. C'est en 1820 que l'on commença à utiliser le fulminate de mercure pour faire des amorces à percussion aptes à enflammer la poudre dans les armes à feu. En 1864, la découverte, par Nobel, de la transmission de la détonation du fulminate à la nitroglycérine fut le point de départ de la fabrication des amorces détonantes, généralement appelées, maintenant, «détonateurs». Pendant tout le XIXe s., le fulminate de mercure fut le seul explosif d'amorçage employé pratiquement. 5, record 3, French, - fulminate%20de%20mercure%28II%29
