In the past few years, a 44-month long aging experiment was conducted under various aging conditions. The properties of aged nitroplasticizer (NP) samples were analyzed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Karl Fischer (KF) titration, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), liquid chromatography tandem quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry, and ion chromatography. In this progress report, complete KF and TGA results are reported and discussed.
