His father, Immanuel Nobel has periods ofsuccess building bridges and periods of not making any money. Immanuel sent Alfi:ed to studychemistry in Paris. Alfred met Ascanio Sobrero, who found the liquid nitroglycerine, a liquid thatexplodes very easily. Alfred thought about making use of nitroglycerine in the construction ofbridges and tunnels. An accident happened during the experiment with the liquid, causing anexplosion, which killed and injured several people, including his brother. He continued looking forways to make this liquid not explode so easily. Nobel was successful in finding a safe way to store the liquid and in 1864 began producinghuge amounts of it. He found that mixing it with kind of sand would turn the liquid into a paste. Hethen wanted to shape the paste into rods that would make it easy to blow up rock when building atunnel. In 1867, he patented the material as dynamite. This patent greatly reduced the costs ofblasting rock and drilling tunnels. As a businessman, Nobel set up laboratories that made dynamitein 90 locations in more than 20 countries. Although dynamite was useful in construction, manypeople used it as a weapon in war.
