2,3 Dimethyl 2,3 Dinitrobutane (DMNB).

2,3 Dimethyl 2,3 Dinitrobutane is known by its abbreviated form (DMNB). It is used as tagging agent/detecting agent for plastic bonded explosives (PBX). Plastic bonded explosives can be easily and safely carried by terrorist and thus DMNB is incorporated at 0.5 to 1.0% level in plastic bonded explosives for the purpose of detection of explosive. Incorporation of DMNB or any other approved detecting agent in plastic bonded explosives is compulsory for ordnance factories all over world.


Uses: Used as detecting agent at the level of 0.1 to 0.5% in plastic bonded explosives.
