Thermal stability of a eutectic mixture of bis(2,2-dinitropropyl) acetal and formal: Part A. Degradation mechanisms in air and under nitrogen atmosphere

Abstract: We investigated the chemical and thermal stability of a eutectic mixture of bis(2,2-dinitropropyl)acetal (BDNPA) and bis(2,2-dinitropropyl)formal (BDNPF) (referred to as NP) in various environments at temperatures below 70 °C. Changes in the chemical composition of aged samples were characterized using TGA, FTIR, GPC, ESI-MS, and 1 H NMR spectroscopies over a period of two years. The results show that the initial signs of NP degradation can be detected as early as 12 months at 70 °C in air. The initial step in… Show more

“…The spectra of both Air and N2 samples are dominated by a strong BDNPF feature (between 3050 and 2800 cm -1 ), suggesting that the degradation more preferentially affect the BDNPA than BDNPF molecules. [1] On the other hand, this preferential trend is not clearly observed in the hydrate sample. Instead, the fine features between 3000 and 2920 cm -1 suggest the formation of new -CH group in the hydrate sample, which indicates that the degradation mechanism of NP in the water environment is different from that occurring under the dry environments.…”

“…These intermediates are produced from the HONO elimination from BDNPA/F. [1] Interestingly, these three samples give different spectral features between 3010 and 2800 cm -1 .
