PyroData

A flare (or fusee) is described as a luminous device, that produces a brilliant light or intense heat without an explosion. Flares are used for signaling, illumination, or defensive countermeasures in civilian and military applications.

Large inserts that propel themselves rapidly away from the shell burst, often looking like fish swimming away.

Effect also created by short lengths of lively fuse see Flying fish fuse

A firework is a pyrotechnic article containing explosive composition which, upon functioning, will burn or explode, or both, to produce a visual effect or aural effect, or both, and which is intended as a form of entertainment. Loose firework compositions, e.g. stars and powders are not included in this definition.

A firecracker (also known as a 'noisemaker' or 'banger') is a small explosive device primarily designed to produce a large amount of noise, especially in the form of a loud bang or report; any visual effect is incidental to this goal.

Falling leaf fuse is most commonly used for various coloured effects fireworks even though it can be used in place for regular visco fuse. It is a cord with a pyrotechnic composition core that burns green, red, purple, blue, yellow or white. There are three layers that make up the fuse.

An explosive substance is a solid or liquid substance (or a mixture of substances) which is in itself capable by chemical reaction of producing gas at such a temperature and pressure and at such a speed as to cause damage to surroundings. Pyrotechnic substances are included even though they do not produce larges volumes of gases.

An explosive is a substance or thing containing a substance, manufactured or used with a view to produce -

In chemistry, an exothermic reaction is one that releases heat. It is the opposite of an endothermic reaction. Expressed in a chemical equation:

Reactants → Product + Energy

In an exothermic reaction the total energy absorbed in bond breaking is less than the total energy released in bond making.

An endothermic reaction is one in which the products have more energy than the reactants, and thus a net input of energy, usually in the form of heat, is required. Endothermic reactions are often described as reactions that "feel cold", and contrast with exothermic reactions, in which heat is released.

An e-match or electrical igniter is an electrical device used to trigger pyro compounds, and is widely used in professional pyrotechnical displays.

They must be hooked up to an Electrical Firing Box (EFB).

Simple, an EFB is a type of remote switch that cause the flow of current trough the e-match resistor end the consequently heating up of the pyro compound.
