Detonators are devices used to initiate the detonation of explosives by creating a shock wave or heat sufficient to trigger an explosion. They are commonly used in mining, construction demolition, and military operations.

Detonators derive from the French word 'détonner,' meaning to explode or sound suddenly.

Detonators are like tiny switches that start bigger explosions, often used with fireworks or in construction to safely set off explosives.
