Probably the most important explosive compond in use today is TNT
|
||
(trinitrotoluene). This and other very similar types of high explosives are
|
||
all used by the military, because of their fantastic power- about 2.25
|
||
millions pounds per square inch, and there great stability. TNT also has
|
||
the great advantage of being ableto be melted at 82 degrees F., so that it
|
||
can be poured into shells, mortars, or any other projectiles. Military TNT
|
||
comes in containers which resemble dryu cell batteries, and are usually
|
||
ingnited by an electrical charge, coupled with an electical blasting cap,
|
||
although there are other methods.
|
||
|
||
Preparation of TNT
|
||
|
||
1. Take two beakers. In the first prepare a solution of 76 percent sulfuric
|
||
acid, 23 percent nitric acid and 1 percent water. In the other beaker,
|
||
prepare another solution of 57 percent nitric acid and 43 percent sulfuric
|
||
acid (percentages are on a weight ratio rather than volume).
|
||
|
||
2. Ten grams of the first solutions are poured into an empty beaker and
|
||
placed in an ice bath.
|
||
|
||
3. Add ten grams of toluene, and stir for several minutes.
|
||
|
||
4. remove this beaker from the ice bath and gently heat until it reaches
|
||
50 degrees C. The solution is stirred constantly while being heated.
|
||
|
||
5. Fifty additional grams of the acid, from the first beaker, are added and
|
||
the temperature is held for the next ten minutes, and an oily liquid will
|
||
begin to form on the top of the acid.
|
||
|
||
6. After 10 or 12 minutes, the acid solution is returned to the ice bath,
|
||
and cooled to 45 begrees C> when reaching this temperature, the oily liquid
|
||
will sink and collect at the bottom of the beaker. At this point, the
|
||
remaining acid solution should be drawn off, by using a syringe.
|
||
|
||
7. Fifty more grams of the first acid solution are added to the oily liquid
|
||
while the temperature is SLOWLY being raised to 83 degrees C. After this
|
||
temperature is reached, it is maintaind for a full half hour.
|
||
|
||
8. At the end of this period, he solution is allowed to cool to
|
||
60 degrees C>, and is held at this temperature for another full half hour.
|
||
After this, the acid is again drawn off, leaving once more only the oily
|
||
liquid at the bottem.
|
||
|
||
9. Thirty grams of sulfuric acid are added, while the oily liquid is gently
|
||
heated to 80 degrees C. All temperature increases must be accoumplished
|
||
slowly and gently.
|
||
|
||
10.Once the desired temperature is reached, 30 grams of the second acid
|
||
solution are added, and the temperature is raised from 80 degrees C>
|
||
to 104 degrees C., and is held for three hours.
|
||
|
||
11.After this three hour period, the mixture is lowered to 100 degrees C.
|
||
and held there for a half hour.
|
||
|
||
12.After this half hour, the oil is removed form the acid and washed with
|
||
boiling water.
|
||
|
||
13.After the washing with boiling water, while being stired constantly, the
|
||
TNT will begin to solidify.
|
||
|
||
14.When the solidification has started, cold water is added to the beaker,
|
||
so that the TNT will form into pellets. Once this is done, you have a
|
||
good quality TNT.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: the temperatures used in the preparation of TNT are EXACT,
|
||
and must be used as such. DO NOT estimate or use aproximations.
|
||
Buy a good centigrade thermometer and be sure it is calibrated.
|
||
This mixture is not forgiving to screw-ups!
