	RAIS: Trinitrophenylmethylnitramine (479-45-8)
		Tetryl is a Class A explosive that is used as an intermediary detonating agent for less sensitive high explosives and as a booster charge in certain military munitions.
		The qualitative detection of picramic acid and its sulfate conjugate in the urine of rabbits treated with tetryl indicates that this is one route of tetryl excretion (Zambrano and Mandovano, 1956).
		Gell (1944) estimated that average particle size of tetryl was 2-3 µm, that the animals were exposed to an atmospheric concentration of approximately 0.4 mg/L, and, during the study period, "absorbed" a cumulative dose of 7-10 mg of tetryl.

	Tetryl
		Tetryl is a sensitive explosive compound used to make detonators.
		Tetryl is an odorless, synthetic, yellow crystal-like solid that is not found naturally in the environment.
		Tetryl was used to make explosives, mostly during World Wars I and II.

	Tetryl
		Effects on Humans: Tetryl is a potent skin sensitizer, a respiratory sensitizer, and an irritant of the skin and upper respiratory tract in humans.
		Tetryl should be stored in a suitable explosives magazine or in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area in tightly sealed containers that are labeled in accordance with OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard.
		If tetryl is dissolved in an organic solvent, the permeation properties of both the solvent and the mixture must be considered when selecting personal protective equipment and clothing.

		Abstract: Tetryl is another basic military explosives which is widely used in ordnance as part of the powder train to detonate an insensitive bursting charge.
		Tetryl is a fine yellow crystalline powder which is usually highly compressed for use.
		Due to the greater sensitivity of Tetryl to shock or friction, greater care must be exercised during preparation than with explosives like TNT.

		She worked around tetryl, a yellow, crystalline, water-insoluble solid used as a chemical indicator and as a detonator and bursting charge in small-caliber shells.
		She was unloading the tetryl from a semi-trailer when the wind blew it into both eyes and they had to be irrigated.
		Besides the barium and tetryl, she also was exposed to acetone, a material used to clean carts, buckets and machines that made pellets from the blended powder.

		Clothing contaminated with tetryl should be placed in closed containers or storage until it can be discarded or until provision is made for the removal of tetryl from the clothing.
		If released to soil, tetryl is expected to be susceptible to slow hydrolysis in acidic and neutral soils; however, in highly alkaline soils, hydrolysis may be relatively rapid.
		Based on hydrolysis studies in water(3), tetryl may be susceptible to slow hydrolysis in acidic and neutral soils; however, in highly alkaline soils, hydrolysis may be relatively rapid.

	Tetryl - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tetryl was used mainly during World Wars I and II and later conflicts.
		Tetryl is no longer manufactured or used in the United States, but can still be found in legacy munitions such as the M14 anti-personnel landmine.
		Tetryl is produced by action of a mix of concentrated nitric acid and sulfuric acid on dimethylaniline.

	Restoration Technology - Multiple Biotechnology Demonstration of Explosives-Contaminated Soils
		The starting average concentrations of TNT and tetryl in the soil were approximately 3,000 parts per million (ppm) and 7,500 ppm, respectively.
		Midwest Microbial: During the laboratory phase, 34 percent of TNT and 52 percent of tetryl were removed from the soils.
		Institute of Gas Technology: During the laboratory treatment, 14 percent of TNT and 56 percent of tetryl were removed from the soils.

		For the purposes of this demonstration the remedial goals for tetryl, TNT, 2,4-DNT, and 2,6-DNT were established at 14 mg/kg, 15 mg/kg, 8 mg/kg, and 8 mg/kg, respectively.
		The concentration of tetryl was reduced from about 6,000 mg/kg to less than 20 mg/kg after only 36 days of treatment.
		Tetryl, TNT, and DNT concentrations were reduced from 314 mg/kg, 122 mg/kg, and 62 mg/kg, to 8.3 mg/kg, 2.1 mg/kg, and 2.1 mg/kg, respectively, after six treatment cycles (50 days).

	Megalomania's Method of Making Tetryl
		Tetryl is a stable explosivecapablee of being handledreasonablyy safe, yet it is still sensitive enough to be used in blasting caps or booster charges.
		Tetryl is more powerful then even TNT, although the lesser stability compared to TNT makes it less attractive to the military.
		You must keep tetryl in the dark and away from the skin, it will stain skin and hair yellow as well as cause itching or worse.

	Tetryl - Wikipedia
		Tetryl (N-Methyl-N,2,4,6-tetranitroanilin) ist eine energetische aromatische Nitro-Nitraminverbindung, die ehemals zur Herstellung von Sprengzündern große Bedeutung hatte, inzwischen jedoch weitgehend durch besser geeignete Stoffe ersetzt ist.
		Tetryl ist in Wasser unlöslich, wenig löslich in Ethanol und löslich in Aceton oder Benzol.
		Tetryl wurde hauptsächlich für Detonatoren, Sprengkapselfüllungen, Zwischenzündladungen und Sprengschnüre verwendet.

	Booster Explosives
		Tetryl is a nitramine booster explosive, though the use has been largely superseded by RDX.
		Tetryl is sensitive secondary high explosive used as a booster, a small charge placed next to the detonator in order to propagate the detonation into the main charge.
		Therefore these chemicals are expected to be short-lived in nature, and environmental impacts would not be expected in areas that are not currently subject to chronic inputs of these chemicals.
