TNT Still World's Standard High Explosive
A harmless-looking powder resembling maple sugar, trinitrotylene or TNT, discovered in 1863, remains the standard high explosive for armies. Germany, a major producer of dyestuffs, should be well supplied from raw materials derived from dyes. France may still use picric acid while Britain may employ amatol. Some observers doubt any valuable new explosive since the World War, though old formulas have been updated. Information on Spain's liquid air bombs is incomplete.
