The methods HPLC, microcalorimetry and FTIR together with chemometry, provide good analytical tools to follow the degradation of nitro-cellulose. The degradation products formed from diphenylamine (DPA) during storage can be followed with HPLC. FTIR, together with chemometry, also gives the precision needed for safety control of propellants. Nitro-cellulose (NC) containing DPA obtained a green colour already after 1 day storage at 70°C. About 10% of the stabilizer, and its derivatives, added were not extractable giving an extended time to autocatalysis. This time could be extended up to 70 days at 70°C for an extracted sample compared to about 3 days for non-stabilized NC. This was not shown before. Aged and extracted NC samples contained a non-extractable nitro compound. The most likely compound is 2,4´-dinitroDPA, probably bonded to NC via the amine nitrogen. The bonding to NC occurs after the formation of NNODPA. This is something not described before. Using another batch of nitro-cellulose to find out if a chemical bonding occurs gave inconclusive results as a blue NC was formed. Low molecular NC with high stability was obtained. A chemical bonding probably occurs when using NNODPA as a stabilizer, indicating NNODPA plays a key role. The use of FTIR/chemometry is a promising method to use when studying small chemical changes.
