Abstract
A gas chromatographic method is described for the determination of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in castable explosives containing TNT and either barium nitrate, hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-s-triazine (RDX), octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-s-tetrazine (KMX), or ammonium nitrate. The TNT is separated by an Apiezon L on Chromosorb W column at 150°C. 1-Chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (1-CI-2,4-DNB) is used as an internal standard for quantitative results.Keywords
