In pyrotechnics, black match is a type of crude fuse, constructed of cotton or polyester string fibers intimately coated with a slurry made of black powder and a binder like dextrin, then dried. It typically burns at a rate of one inch per second, though this rate is dependent on the quality of black powder used.
