[PDF] A New Energetic Mixed Formal Plasticizer , Using Diformal as
BDNPF/A is a useful energetic plasticizer, but mixed formal, which consists of BDNPF, DNPBF, and BDNBF, is anticipated to be better than BDNPF/A in chemically, thermally and economically. Last year, we successfully synthesized and characterized the mixed formal that has minimum contents of diformal.

With the addition of nitro groups, N-HTPB is miscible with energetic plasticizers with superior oxygen balance and burn rate than HTPB. N-HPTB has shown to be thermally stable up to 170°C, and propellants using N-HTPB also shows higher density and burn rate than propellants using HTPB as its binder [Citation 10, Citation 41 – Citation 45].
Simple and Green Synthesis of a Novel Fluoro-Nitrato Energetic Plasticizer
The higher energy characteristics of the energetic plasticizer along with its ability to improve the mechanical strength of the composite enable tailoring higher performance with less loading of the energy content, thereby making future energetic composite polymer materials safer and greener.1
Energetic Polymers | Emerging nanoscience Research Institute (EnRI
EnRI has successfully synthesized energetic polymer plasticizers namely; low molecular weight GAP and azido terminated GAP (GAP-A). These energetic polymer based plasticizers are structurally similar to binder matrix and resist the migration due to enhanced miscibility.
- What are energetic plasticizers?
- The main focus of energetic plasticizers is to enhance the mechanical properties and safety characteristics of the energetic formulation without diluting the overall energy content of the system.
- What was the first energy plasticizer?
- The first energetic plasticizer developed for commercial application and still widely used is nitroglycerine (NG) or glyceroltrinitrate. NG was first discovered in 1846. It has a high oxygen balance of +3.5 that improves the energy content of the overall composite mixture.
- What is the difference between conventional and nonenergetic plasticizers?
- (1) The conventional plasticizers usually have inert and stable carbon–hydrogen-based backbone and are used in all kinds of applications. However, for energy-based applications, mixing the ingredients of the composite polymer matrix with nonenergetic plasticizers dilutes the overall energy content of the energetic system.
- Which energetic plasticizer has the highest melting point?
- For example, bis (2-fluoro-2,2-dinitroethyl)formal (FEFO) is a fluoro-nitro energetic plasticizer having a melting point of 14 °C and is reported to have the highest density (1.60 g/cc) for any energetic plasticizer currently in use.
- Is ACR-enp-1 a potential energetic plasticizer?
- The designed structure of ACR-ENP-1 was an attractive candidate for a potential energetic plasticizer because it was analogous to the structure of NG ( Figure 1 ), with an oxygen balance of −71.7 and a theoretical heat of formation of −1810 kJ/mol.
- What are the patents for dinitropropyl fluorodinitroethyl formal plasticizer?
- US Patent 3962349, 1976. Adolph, H. G. Dinitropropyl fluorodinitroethyl formal plasticizer and method of preparation. US Patent 4453021, 1984. Koppes, W. M.; Adolph, H. G. Bis (2,2,2-fluorodinitroethoxy)- (1,1,1-fluorodinitro-2-propoxy) methane. US Patent 4756777, 1988.
