  • Publication number: 20220118433
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a catalyst-supporting organic-inorganic hybrid composite particle, and more particularly, to a technique of adjusting a desired pot life and curing speed by preparing a catalyst-supporting organic-inorganic hybrid composite particle by adding a catalyst for polyurethane reaction to a catalyst-supporting particle prepared by stirring an alkoxy silane-functionalized polyurethane precursor and the tetraethyl orthosilicate for a certain period of time and mixing them, and adjusting an initiation rate for polyurethane polymerization through the prepared catalyst-supporting organic-inorganic hybrid composite particle.

  • Publication number: 20180297909
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a press polymer-bonded explosive, in which a polymer emulsion is used to maximize the efficiency of a process, and a press polymer-bonded explosive manufactured using the same. The method includes a polymer-emulsion-manufacturing step of mixing a monomer of a polymer binder and an emulsifier with a process water and then adding an initiator to thus manufacture a polymer emulsion using a polymerization reaction, a slurry-manufacturing step of mixing a raw material including an explosive and an emulsion breaker with fresh process water to thus manufacture a slurry, an agglomerated-particle-forming step of adding the manufactured polymer emulsion to the manufactured slurry to thus form agglomerated particles in which a surface of the raw material is coated with the polymer binder, and an agglomerated-particle-obtaining step of collecting the agglomerated particles using filtration and drying the collected agglomerated particles.

  • Patent number: 7880023
    Abstract: A synthesis of an energetic prepolymer used as a high-energy binder for an insensitive and high performance explosive is disclosed. More specifically, provided are a novel compound 2-nitratoethyl oxirane expressed by formula III, a novel compound poly(2-nitratoethyl oxirane) expressed by formula IV, obtained by polymerization of 2-nitratoethyl oxirane used as a monomer and a preparation method thereof. The compound, used as an energetic prepolymer and a monomer for preparation thereof can substitute for existing poly(glycidyl nitrate) (PGN) which has been known to be a promising one having the best performance among existing energetic prepolymers, but which has a problem to be self-decomposed after synthesis of polyurethane elastomer, to solve this problem.

  • Patent number: 6620268
    Abstract: An energetic plascitizer comprising bis(2,2-dinitropropyl) formal, 2,2-dinitropropyl 2,2-dinitrobutyl formal and bis 2,2-dinitrobutyl) formal in a molar ratio of 20˜68%/28˜50%/4˜30% is, described. It is also provided a method for synthesizing the plasticizer comprising: dissolving 2,2-dinitropropanol and 2,2-dinitrobutanol into an organic solvent to form an organic solution, in which the molar ratio of 2,2-dinitropropanol to 2,2-dinitrobutanol is 3:1-6:1; adding to the organic solution a sulfuric acid solution where formaldehyde source was dissolved, wherein the temperature of reaction medium is maintained below 20° C.; and separating and purifying the product from the reaction mixture.

  • Patent number: 6592692
    Abstract: The present invention provides an energetic plasticizer comprising bis(2,2-dinitropropyl) formal and a material that keeps bis(2,2-dinitropropyl) formal from crystallizing out, wherein the material that keeps bis(2,2-dinitropropyl) formal from crystallizing out is bis(2,2-dinitropropyl) diformal. In case where BDNPDF is used to prevent BDNPF from crystallizing out, BDNPF is not crystallized even though it stands at the temperature −20° C. for more than 6 months, while its thermal and chemical properties are similar to that of conventional plasticizers. Also, by using BDNPDF, that has been considered as a unfavorable side product, as an inhibitor of crystallization, no additional process is required to remove BDNPDF. Moreover, the cost involved is lower.
