Energetic polymer

A process by which 1,7-dihydroxy-2,4,6-trinitro-2,4,6-triazaheptane or 1,9-dihydroxy-2,4,6,8-tetranitro-2,4,6,8-tetraazanonane is produced by hydrolyzing 1,7-diacetoxy-2,4,6-trinitro-2,4,6-triazaheptane or 1,9-diacetoxy-2,4,6,8-tetranitro-2,4,6,8-tetraazanonane with concentrated aqeuous hydrochloric acid comprising from 28 to 32 weight percent of hydrogen chloride with the remainder being water.

Process for producing hydroxy terminated nitramines

1-acetoxy-2,4,6-trinitro-2,4,6-triazaheptane, 1,7-diacetoxy-2,4,6-trinitro-2,4,6-triazaheptane, or 1,9-diacetoxy-2,4,6,8-tetranitro-2,4,6,8-tetraazanonane is reacted with a mixture of concentrated hydrochloric acid and trifluoroacetic 2,4,6-triazaheptane, 1,7-dichloro-2,4,6-trinitro-2,4,6-triazaheptane, or 1,7-dichloro-2,4,6,8-tetranitro-2,4,6,8-tetraazanonane.
