Propellants consisting of nitrocellulose (NC) and/or other nitrate esters are inherently chemically unstable and undergo decomposition even under standard storage conditions. Decomposition of such compounds can be inhibited or nearly stopped when stabilizers are used. However, conventional stabilizers form nitrosamines that have toxic and carcinogenic effects. As a result, these conventional stabilizers should be replaced as soon as possible. A series of NC-based propellants doped with different novel manufactured stabilizers were investigated using microcalorimetry, conventional stability tests, and sensitivity tests. The results were compared with propellants containing the conventional stabilizer Akardite II. The chemical structure of these new stabilizers and their decomposition products do not enable the formation of toxic N-nitrosamines.
