title: Effect of new poly 2-acryloyl-N,N'-bis (4-nitrophenyl) propandiamide and poly 2-acryloyl-N,N'-bis (4-methylphenyl) propandiamide and their synergistic action on the stability of nitrocellulose.
abstract: The stability of nitrocellulose can be significantly improved by incorporating two novel polymeric compounds as new stabilizers, each has two p-substituted phenyl rings in its repeating unit. The two prepared polymers were used independently and in three different blend ratios in comparison with the conventional propellant stabilizer, diphenylamine. The efficiency of the prepared stabilizers and their synergistic effect were evaluated using thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), Bergmann-Junk test and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It was found that both polymers and their 50%:50% blend ratio are more efficient nitrocellulose stabilizers than diphenylamine.
