The striking surface consists of powdered glass or silica (sand), red phosphorus, binder, and filler. When hit a safety match, the glass-on-glass scraping makes high temperature upon friction to initiate the reaction between excess red phosphorus and potassium chlorate (KClO3). A little amount of red phosphorus is change as to white phosphorus vapour (P4), White phosphorus spontaneously ignites. Decomposing potassium chlorate and release oxygen. At this point, the sulfur starts to burn, which ignites the wood of the match. History of Safety Matches : In 1669, phosphorous was discovered by Hennig Brand – phosphorous was soon used in
