National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Synthesis and characterization of 1,4-dinitroglycoluril (DINGU).

DE93014111

Publication Date	1993
Personal Author	Sanchez, J. A.; Stinecipher, M. M.; Stretz, L. A.
Page Count	11
Abstract	The synthesis and properties of 1,4-dinitroglycoluril (DINGU) have been studied. Isomers formed during the DINGU synthesis reaction were identified. The synthesis reaction was scaled up and reaction conditions optimized to produce the maximum yield of DINGU. This study evaluated DINGU as an energy contributing material in cast and plastic-bonded explosive formulations. Plastic coating of DINGU into a plastic-bonded explosive using several binders was also investigated. Testing indicated that DINGU has lower than expected explosive performance both as a pure material and when formulated in a plastic-bonded explosive. (ERA citation 18:024518)
