trinitrotoluene

Though temporary, the affects of packing shells with trinitrotoluene - more commonly known as TNT - ran more than skin-deep.

Along with the MNCB, a flammable toxic compound called trinitrotoluene—more commonly known as TNT—was left lying around in pipes and underground sarcophagi.

Both are sometimes used with trinitrotoluene, a different type of compound more commonly known as TNT.

Mononitrotoluene is put in at one end of the plant and comes out as trinitrotoluene.

It is made from carbolic acid and the famous trinitrotoluene is made from toluene, both of which you will find in the list of the ten fundamental "crudes."
