    摘要: Energetic polymers and methods for their synthesis are provided. The polymers are preferably produced from cyclic ether monomers having 4 or 5 member rings. The cyclic ether monomers preferably include energetic functional groups such that a polymer formed from the monomer is itself energetic. Polymerization is catalyzed by a combination of alkylating salt and alcohol. The preferred salts are triethoxonium salts with anions such as hexafluorophosphate, hexachloroantimonate, and tetrafluoroborate. It is found that by employing the combination of selected triethoxonium salts and selected alcohols that it is possible to produce an energetic polymer with predetermined functionality and molecular weight. The salt is found to scavenge water in the reaction mixture, thus increasing control over the functionality of the final product. The salt-alcohol combination also rapidly initiates polymerization and allows higher molecular weights to be achieved. This is particularly important in that one limitation previously experienced in polymerization of the types of monomers used in this invention was an inability to achieve rapid and complete polymerization.

    摘要: A process of crystallizing CL-20 is disclosed. In the process, a wet CL-20 solvent/CL-20 solution is dried by azeotropic distillation of a CL-20 solvent/water azeotrope. Removal of water from the CL-20 solution permits crystallization of high density CL-20. A low density, CL-20 non-solvent is added to the resulting dry CL-20 solvent/CL-20 solution to cause precipitation of .epsilon.-polymorph CL-20. The CL-20 crystals are separated from the non-solvent and the solvent by adding sufficient water to displace the non-solvent and the solvent from the surface of the CL-20 crystals. In this fashion, the .epsilon.-polymorph CL-20 is made wet for later handling, packaging, and shipping.

    摘要: A nonsolvent process of synthesizing bis(2,2-dinitropropyl)acetal (BDNPA) is disclosed. In the process, 2,2-dinitropropanol (DNPOH) is reacted at low temperature with an acetaldehyde source in the presence of an acid catalyst, such as a Lewis acid catalyst or protic acid catalyst. To inhibit by product formation, the reaction temperature is maintained from about -30.degree. C. to 30.degree. C. Upon completion of the reaction, the reaction solution is quenched with water and washed with an aqueous hydroxide solution. The hydroxide concentration should be sufficient to neutralize any acid formed during the quenching step and to solubilize unreacted 2,2-dinitropropanol as well as other aqueous soluble byproducts in the reaction solution. The BDNPA product is extracted with methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) or equivalent solvent. The organic solvent is evaporated to yield usable BDNPA product. The resulting yield is at least 50% based on the starting quantity of 2,2-dinitropropanol.

    摘要: A PBAN-based solid rocket motor propellant which includes more than 85% or more solids is provided. Propellants of this nature are possible using the combination of diepoxide curing agents and PBAN as a binder. The curing agents include diepoxides having 4 to about 10 carbon atoms. It has been observed that when a diepoxide curing agent is substituted for conventional curing agents, viscosities are significantly reduced, thus enabling the addition of higher percentages of solids in the propellant formulation. Total solids loading of over 85% are achievable while maintaining end-of-mix viscosities within acceptable ranges.

    摘要: Automotive airbag gas generant formulation providing an alternative to commercially used formulations containing sodium azide. The composition contains from about 25% to about 75% by weight of 5-nitro-1,2,4-trizal-3-one (usually known as nitrotriazolone). The other principal ingredient of the composition is from about 25% to about 75% by weight of an anhydrous oxidizing salt having a cation selected from metals of Group I-A of the Periodic Table (except sodium), calcium, strontium, or barium, and an anion which is essentially free of carbon, hydrogen, or halogens. From about 0.1% to about 5% of a binder can be added, if necessary. An automotive airbag inflator containing the composition and a method for generating gas comprising the step of igniting the composition stated above are also disclosed.

    摘要: A method of preparing a thermoplastic elastomer having A blocks and at least one B block, wherein said A blocks are crystalline at temperatures below about 60.degree. C. and said B block(s) is amorphous at temperatures above about -20.degree. C., said A blocks each being polyethers derived from monomers of oxetane and its derivatives and/or tetrahydrofuran and its derivatives, the method comprisingproviding hydroxyl terminated A blocks which are crystalline at temperatures below about 60.degree. C. and separately providing hydroxyl terminated B blocks which are amorphous at temperatures above about -20.degree. C.,end-capping said A blocks and said B blocks by separately reacting each of said A blocks and B blocks with a diisocyanate in which one isocyanate moiety is at least about five times as reactive with the terminal hydroxyl groups of each of the blocks as the other isocyanate moiety, whereby the more reactive isocyanate moiety tends to react with terminal hydroxyl groups of the blocks, leaving the less reactive isocyanate moiety free and unreacted,mixing said end-capped A blocks and said end-capped B blocks together at approximately the stoichiometric ratios that they are intended to be present in the thermoplastic elastomer, andreacting said mixture with a linking compound having two isocyanate-reactive groups which are sufficiently unhindered to react with the free isocyanate groups of said end-capped polymer.
