Description

A match is a tool for starting a fire. Typically, matches are made of small wooden sticks or stiff paper. One end is coated with a material that can be ignited by friction generated by striking the match against a suitable surface. Wooden matches are packaged in matchboxes, and paper matches are partially cut into rows and stapled into matchbooks. The coated end of a match, known as the match "head", consists of a bead of active ingredients and binder, often colored for easier inspection. There are two main types of matches: safety matches, which can be struck only against a specially prepared surface, and strike-anywhere matches, for which any suitably frictional surface can be used.

माचिस और उसकी तिली मिलकर आवश्यकतानुसार, नियंत्रित ढ़ंग से आग पैदा करने के काम आते हैं। आजकल यह एक बहुत ही सस्ती एवं सुलभ चीज है।
