3.

4. The Explosives Was Several Decades In The Making Alfred Nobel worked in the private laboratory of Professor T. J. Pelouze , a famous chemist. There he met the young Italian chemist  Ascanio Sobrero  who, three years earlier, had invented  nitro-glycerine , a highly explosive liquid. It was considered too dangerous although its explosive power greatly exceeded that of gunpowder , the liquid would explode in a very unpredictable manner if subjected to heat and pressure. Alfred Nobel became very interested in nitro-glycerine .

5. Dynamite Alfred Nobel concentrated on developing nitro-glycerine as an explosive. To make the handling of nitro-glycerine safer Alfred Nobel mixed nitro-glycerine with  kieselguhr   would turn the liquid into a paste which could be shaped into rods of different size. He patented it in 1867 Became "Europe's richest vagabond".

6. Dynamite Construction Diatomaceous earth (or any other type of absorbent material) soaked in nitro-glycerine. Protective coating surrounding the explosive material. Blasting cap. Electrical cable (or fuse) connected to the blasting cap.

7. Ballistite Smokeless propellant. Mixture of equal parts of nitrocellulose and nitro-glycerine with 10% of camphor. Alfred Nobel patented it in 1887 Soon it replaced the use of black powder. This invention paved the way for Nobel prize.

8. The incident in 1888 may have triggered the train of reflection that culminated in his bequest for the Nobel Prizes. That year Alfred’s brother Ludvig had died while staying in Cannes, France. The French newspapers reported Ludvig’s death but confused him with Alfred, and one paper sported the headline “Le marchand de la mort est mort” (“The merchant of death is dead.”) Perhaps Alfred Nobel established the prizes to avoid precisely the sort of posthumous reputation suggested by this premature obituary.
