1,5-Diazido-3-oxopentane (AZDEGDN) is a promising energetic plasticizer widely used in explosive formulations due to its low sensitivity, low glass transition temperature, and high thermal stability. However, its application in solid propellants requires further investigation. In this study, the physicochemical properties of AZDEGDN based propellant samples were characterized using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), vacuum stability test (VST), hot-stage polarized light microscopy (HSPLM), rheological testing, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and accelerated aging test. The study shows that AZDEGDN exhibits chemical compatibility with glycidyl azide polymer (GAP), poly(3,3-bis(azidomethyl)oxetane)-co-tetrahydrofuran (PBT), polyethylene glycol (PEG), poly(tetrahydrofuran)-co-ethylene oxide (PET), aluminum (Al), ammonium perchlorate (AP), dihydroxylammonium 5,5′-bistetrazole-1,1′-diolate (TKX-50) and 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocane (HMX). Notably, the AZDEGDN/GAP mixture demonstrates a 99.42 % reduction in viscosity compared to pure GAP, and the plasticizing efficiency of AZDEGDN is higher than butylnitroxyethyl nitramine (Bu-NENA). The propellant containing PET and AZDEGDN exhibits a glass transition temperature of -79 °C. VST results confirmed the good thermal stability of the solid propellant samples (gas evolution < 0.6 mL). HSPLM imaging revealed that AZDEGDN based propellant only shows mild degradation and expansion after heating from 30 °C to 300 °C. Accelerated aging test indicated robust physical compatibility between AZDEGDN and propellant components, with superior resistance to migration during long-term storage. In conclusion, AZDEGDN is a promising energetic plasticizer with good compatibility and plasticization efficiency which can be used in polyether-based solid propellants.
Geminal dinitropropyl ester plasticizers (DNPEPs) possess excellent energetic performances which provide good potentials as insensitive plasticizer. In this study, we design and synthesize DNPEPs with different alkane chain parts, and systematically investigate their structure-property relationships. Results show that DNPEPs have impact sensitivities all higher than 25.2 J, thermal decomposition tem-peratures all higher than 254 degrees C, and glass transition temperatures (Tg) lower than-90 degrees C. Furthermore, the effects of DNPEPs as plasticizer are studied on hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) in detail, including the viscosity, glass transition temperatures and others. It is noteworthy that 2,2-dinitropropyl nonanoate (DNPNc) among these DNPEPs exhibits the most expected simultaneous tuning effects on both viscosity and Tg of HTPB systems, providing favorable potentials to replace the con-ventional plastizers as dioctyl sebacate (DOS) in the HTPB based propellants and explosives.(c) 2022 The Chemical Industry and Engineering Society of China, and Chemical Industry Press Co., Ltd.

Besides, as miscibility test, viscosity and T. measurements turned out, DNPTFP had good miscibility with glycide azide polymer(GAP) , and demonstrated notable adjust ability on the viscosity and T-g of GAP. Moreover, along with higher mixing ratio of DNPTFP, lower fluidity activation energy and higher plasticizing efficiency was achieved. Therefore, DNPTFP exhibited excellent plasticizing effect on GAP, which indicating good potential application in GAP based explosives and propellant.

Novel geminal dinitro ester energetic plasticizers (DNEPs) were designed with different alkane lengths in the mainchain, namely 2,2-dinitropropyl acetate (DNPAc), 2,2-dinitropropyl propionate (DNPPc), and 2,2-dinitropropyl propionate (DNPBc). Due to the incorporation of ester and dinitro groups, these three DNEPs were expected to possess high heat of formations and thermal decomposition temperatures (Tp) and lower glass transition temperatures (Tg). Likewise, their impact sensitivities were all measured as higher than 25.2 J. Due to the maximum alkane length of DNPBc, DNPBc possesses the highest Tp and the lowest Tg. As plasticizers for glycidyl azide polymer (GAP), DNEPs significantly improve the viscosity and Tg of GAP. Particularly, the plasticizing efficiency of DNPBc is higher than that of the reported N-butyl nitroxyethyl nitramine (BuNENA). Likewise, the specific impulses of GAP/HMX based compositions with DNEPs as energetic plasticizers were all slightly higher than that of BuNENA. Therefore, these DNEPs (especially DNPBc) exhibit promising potential as candidates for replacement of BuNENA in GAP based propellants.

The surface functionalization of graphene oxide (GO) is always attractive in improving certain properties of the polymer. In this study, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and 3-mercaptopropyl-trimethoxysilane (SPTES) have been used to make silane functionalized graphene oxides (SiGOs). The APTES-grafted GO (NH-SiGO), SPTES-grafted GO (SH-SiGO) and pure GO have been separately introduced into the nitrocellulose (NC) matrix. The morphology, thermal properties and energetic properties of the prepared nanocomposites (NH-SiGO and SH-SiGO) were investigated comprehensively. It is shown that the presence of GO and SiGOs have different influences on the thermal reactivity of NC with various contents, and NH-SiGO with 0.5 wt% content showed better catalytic performance on the thermal decomposition of NC than others and showed prominently higher efficiency in improving its heat of combustion. Adding 0.5 wt% of NH-SiGO to NC may decrease its decomposition temperature from 202.1 °C to 196.6 °C, and the residue was decreased from 10.61 wt% to 3.95 wt%, respectively. One isoconversional kinetic method was exploited to determine the kinetic parameters of NC and its nanocomposites. It was found that NH-SiGO had a strong catalytic action on the thermal decomposition of NC-based nanocomposites for which the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor were considerably lowered, while SH-SiGO exhibited an inverse effect. The heat of combustion from NC/GO/0.5, NC/NH-SiGO/0.5 and NC/SH-SiGO/0.5 were determined as 11 249.5, 11 675.1 and 11 491.5 J g-1, respectively, which are higher than that of the pure NC (10 908.4 J g-1). From the combustion process of NC/NH-SiGO/0.5, it was shown that the nanocomposite was combusted completely.
