Abstract
Abstract Tests are described for the detection and identification of suspected dynamite in bombing debris. A discussion of major categories and typical formulations of dynamite is included. Thin layer chromatographic and infrared techniques are utilized for the identification of the explosive oils nitroglycerin and ethylene glycol dinitrate, which are present in most commercial dynamites. Problems encountered with solvent extraction of these oils are discussed. Additional chemical tests performed on the debris to facilitate identification of the particular type of dynamite present in the debris are described.
