“…36 Hence, it is an ideal candidate as a hyperbranched structure for hybridization with linear energetic materials. Inspired by the literature, 17,22,29,30,35,36,38 GAPs copolymerized with hyperbranched polyether are a desirable alternative. Therefore, much more efforts should be made to improve this promising method in the field of energetic materials.…”

A series of novel multi-arm azide copolymers (POGs) with the same hyperbranched poly[3-ethyl-3-(hydroxymethyl)oxetane] core (PEHO-c) and different content of linear glycidyl azide polymer shell (GAP-s) have been synthesized by sequential cationic ring-opening polymerization and azidation. Detailed structural information of these copolyethers was deduced from Fourier transform infrared, 1 H NMR and inverse gated decoupled 13 C NMR spectroscopies, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, gel permeation chromatography and elemental analysis. The molecular weight of POG having GAP-s and PEHO-c with a molar ratio 14.95:1 (R s/c ) was around 31 000 g mol −1 , far above that of linear GAP (around 4000 g mol −1 ). The apparent viscosity and glass transition temperature (−51 to −23 ∘ C) decreased first and then slightly increased with increasing molecular weight. Thermal analysis revealed that all the obtained POGs exhibited excellent resistance to thermal decomposition up to 220 ∘ C. Moreover, the energetic properties, investigated using oxygen bomb calorimetric measurements, indicated that the enthalpy of formation of the POGs was higher than that of general linear GAP, but similar to that of branched GAP under reasonable R s/c . The compatibilities of the POGs with common materials used in solid propellants were studied using differential scanning calorimetry and the results indicated that the POGs had good compatibility with these materials.

“…Comparing to their linear counterparts, it has been well established that hyperbranched polymers with three-dimensional (3D) highly branched globular structure possess a large population of functional groups, lower solution or melt viscosity, no or lower chain entanglement and better solubility [15][16][17]. Azido-terminated dendritic or hyperbranched polyesters were reported as energetic plasticizers, however, their molecular weights are still relatively low [18][19][20]. Zhang et al [21] synthesized hyperbranched poly-3-azidomethyl-3-hydroxymethyl oxetane (PAMHMO) with high molecular weight (M n > 6000 g mol À1 ), but they are not appropriate as an energetic plasticizer for composite solid propellant, since their hydroxyl groups could react with the isocyanate of the curing agent thereby diminish plasticizing effect [1,12].…”

Azido‐terminated hyperbranched multi‐arm copolymer (POGA) with hyperbranched polyether core (PEHO‐c) and linear azido‐terminated glycidyl azide polymer arms (GAPA‐a) has been prepared. The structures of the polymers were characterized by FT‐IR, NMR, GPC and elemental analysis. The molecular weight of POGA was up to ca 17000 g mol−1, far higher than that of common plasticizers (200∼1000 g mol−1). The enthalpy of formation and high nitrogen content of POGA demonstrated its remarkable energy level, and low impact and friction sensitivities indicated its good safety performance in mechanical stimuli. The results of the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters, calculated from non‐isothermal DSC, denoted a fine thermal stability of POGA. Furthermore, the plasticizing effect of POGA, evaluated by plasticizer efficiency and viscosity, was superior to A3 but inferior to Bu‐NENA, however, its exudation was much slower than that of small molecular plasticizers, especially Bu‐NENA. Moreover, the plasticizing mechanism of POGA as energetic macromolecular plasticizer was established by analyzing its structure and performance characteristics.

“…[13][14][15][16][17] Compared with general organic azido compounds, energetic azido ester plasticizers provided with better lubricant effect and thermal stability, lower sensitivity and glass transition temperature. [18][19][20] Previous work have reported the synthesis and properties of some energetic azido ester plasticizers such as bis(2-azido-1-(azidomethyl)ethyl) malonate (BAEM), bis(2-azido-1-(azidomethyl)ethyl) glutarate (BAEG), 1,3-bis(azidoacetoxy)-2,2-bis-(azidomethyl)propane (BABAMP) and triazidopentaerythrite acetate (TAP-Ac) (Scheme 1). [4,12,[21][22][23][24] However, the most conspicuous drawback of these azido ester plasticizers is their low level of nitrogen content, oxygen balance, density and energy.…”

This study reports the synthesis and characterization of a novel azido ester plasticizer, 3‐azido‐2,2‐bis(azidomethyl)propyl 2‐azidoacetate (ABAMPA), with good yield and high purity. The density, impact sensitivity, friction sensitivity, thermal decomposition temperature and glass transition temperature were determined to be 1.326 g ⋅ cm−3, 16 J, 324 N, 235.9 °C and −50.4 °C, respectively. The plasticizing effect of ABAMPA on glycidyl azide polymer (GAP) was calculated by molecular dynamics, the solubility parameter difference value was 1.7(J ⋅ cm−3)0.5, and the glass transition temperature of GAP was reduced from −35 °C to −43 °C when the weight ratio of ABAMPA and GAP was 50 : 50. The new azido ester exhibits high energy, remarkable thermostability and good compatibility with GAP, which indicates that it would have potential application in explosive and propellant formulations.
