Alfred Nobel Alfred Bernard Nobel, a Swedish chemist, invented dynamite and founded the Nobel Prizes. As a young man, Nobel experimented with nitroglycerin in his father’s factory. He hoped to make this dangerous substance into a safe and useful explosive. He prepared a nitroglycerin explosive, but so many accidents occurred when it was put on the market that for a number of years many people considered Nobel almost a public enemy. Finally in 1867 Nobel combined niter with an absorbent substance. This explosive could be handled and shipped safely. Nobel named it dynamite. Within a few years he became one of the world’s richest men. He set up factories throughout the world and bought the large Bofors armament plant in Sweden. He worked on synthetic rubber, artificial silk and many other products. Nobel was never in good health. In later years he became increasingly ill and nervous. He suffered from a feeling of guilt at having created a substance that caused so much death and injury. He hated the thought that dynamite could be used in war when he had invented it for peace. Nobel set up a fund of about 9 million U.S. dollars. The interest from the fund was to be used to award annual prizes, one of which was for the most effective work in promoting international peace. Alfred Nobel was born on October, 21, 1833 in Stockholm. He was the son of an inventor. He was educated in St. Petersburg, Russia, and later studied engineering in the United States.
