Abstract
An improved process for producing poly(glycidyl nitrate) having a functionality substantially equivalent to the hydroxy functionality of the initiator employed in which a catalyst-initiator complex is reacted with glycidyl nitrate and wherein the ratio of mols catalyst/mols hydroxyls in the initiator is <1:1, the gylcidyl nitrate monomer is added to the catalyst-initiator complex reaction mixture at a rate in which the monomer is used up (reacted) essentially as fast as it is added, and the reaction temperature is maintained at a temperature within the range of from about 10.degree. to 25.degree.
