A Progress Report for a 44-month Aging Study on Nitroplasticizer (NP) Stability - Summary of DFT and FTIR Results
- Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), Los Alamos, NM (United States)
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 (LC/QTOF), and ion chromatography (IC). In this progress report, some FTIR results are documented and discussed. On the theoretical front, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out. Some DFT results are discussed as well.
