Long Range Research Leading to the Development of Superior Propellants. Coatings for Small Arms Powders - Substitutes for DNT

Abstract

The objective of this research was to develop a higher melting substitute for DNT for coating propellent powders for small arms. Preliminary laboratory experiments and data indicate 2-4 dinitroanisole to be an excellent high-melting substitute for DNT as a deterrent coating for Type I small arms powders.
