Trinitrotoluene (TNT) is a solid organic nitrogen compound that is pale yellow in color and primarily used as an explosive. It is produced by the gradual nitration of toluene. TNT has unique properties that make it an ideal choice for use in explosive devices. It has a melting point of 82° C (178° F) and is non-explosive at temperatures below 240° C (464° F), which allows it to be melted in steam-heated containers and poured into casings. Additionally, TNT is relatively insensitive to shock and cannot be detonated without a detonator. This makes it a highly favored chemical explosive, extensively utilized in both military and civilian applications, including in munitions and for demolitions.
