Chemical Analysis, Databasing, and Statistical Analysis of Smokeless Powders for Forensic Application
Smokeless powders are a set of energetic materials, known as low explosives, which are typically utilized for reloading ammunition. There are three types which differ in their primary energetic materials; where single base powders contain nitrocellulose as their primary energetic material, double …

Phytoremediation of nitroglycerin in smokeless powders
… of nitroglycerin (NG), as applied in commercial smokeless powder from soil. Double base smokeless powder was applied to soil mesocosms at rates of 0, 1.0, 5.0 and 10% (w/w). Nitroglycerin-contaminated mesocosms were seeded with oats (Avena sativa) or planted with live sedge plants (Carex …

Nitrations of viscose rayon
… naturally prohibits use of such products as smokeless powder. From the results of this investigation, it seems that any continuous type of acidic nitration of viscose rayon for use in powder bags or guncotton would be highly impractical.
