Smoke Grenade - Other Uses

Other Uses

Smoke grenades are sometimes used in paintball or airsoft events, though these are not necessarily of military grade. Some devices utilized for the purpose of generating concealing smoke are high-volume smoke candles.

Smoke compositions can be also used as an aerosolization vehicle for other materials than dyes; popular applications are in dispersion of CN gas or more commonly CS gas, or in agriculture for dispersion of insecticides.
