small explosion of the blasting cap that is required
to cause the nitroglycerin to explode.

#Throughout the 1870s, the
German company, with its
five factories, was the
largest with regard to
both production and
exports, and until the
middle of the decade,
with regard to profits
as well.
#The Swiss and Italian Nobel companies were no
success during the 70s; it is doubtful
whether they had any actual profits at all.
The French company developed only slowly.
The Spanish company was a success from the
start.
