Selig, W.

A simple method for estimating the solubility of TATB in various solvents is presented. We consider it unlikely that a solvent will be found in which TATB is more soluble than 0.1 percent (w/v). Exceptions are the so-called superacids in which the solubility of TATB exceeds 20 percent (w/v).
