Closs VIII Nitrostarch Dynamites. These powdery expls began to be manufd in the USA shortly after turn of this century, and they are made nowhere else. The name of the concern which manufactures them nearly exclusively is the Trojan Powder Company of Allentown, Pennsylvania. In these expls Nitrostarch (NS) is used as the sensitizing agent instead of NG, NGc or other liquid organic nitrates of ordinary Dynamites, or instead of TNT, RDX, etc of Military Dynamites, described here as Class X...

Desensitized RDX, one of the constituents in the explosive composition of the standardized military dynamite, was manufactured by coating the SAE 10 engine oil on the RDX in a water slurry at ambient temperatures without a wetting agent. No significant separation at ambient temperature or in 11 months at 65°C... [Pg.507]

TNT is a white, slightly yellow, or yellowish crystalline solid with a melting point of 80 Celsius. It is insoluble in water, but soluble in acetone, and benzene. It is widely used in the explosives field either by itself, or alloyed with other explosives such as RDX, HMX, or almost any meltable explosive. TNT is also commonly used when mixed with ammonium nitrate for use in military dynamites. TNT is one of the highest volume produced high explosive in the world, and during WWII, so much TNT was made that its preparation was ranked higher by volume then aspirin (180,000+ tones per year). TNT is widely used in... [Pg.180]
