abstract：:The primary explosive found in most land mines, 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (2,4,6-TNT), is often accompanied by 2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT) and 1,3-dinitrobenzene (1,3-DNB) impurities. The latter two compounds, being more volatile, have been reported to slowly leak through land mine covers and permeate the soil under whic...
