sulfur matches
Nota de aplicación
Matches that use sulfur as the lighting tip, often comprising wooden sticks dipped in melted sulfur. Sulfur matches were recorded as early as 577 CE in China. By the 19th century, improvements to the sulfur match were invented, including impregnating the wood or paper with stearic acid, wax, resin, or paraffin to allow faster lighting and less offensive odor.
